CD31 antibody & VEGF antibody

by Biorbyt Ltd Tools for Science

Biotechnology is the utilisation of biological processes for manufacturing scientific reagents and for other scientific purposes. Essentially, biological reagents are components that are used in bio-chemical analysis to evaluate biological processes. They can be used to generate antibodies that are used to target specific protein targets, which are known as antigens. Immunohistochemistry is the process of detecting antigens in cells of a tissue section and Western blot first separates a protein mixture via SDS-PAGE and then using the primary antibody to detect the protein of interest. This works by exploiting the binding of antibodies to specific epitopes on the protein that are in biological tissues.

 

CD31 antibody: Cluster of Differentiation 31, also known as platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1) is a type I integral membrane glycoprotein; and an element of the immunoglobulin super-family of cell surface receptors. CD31 is constitutively expressed on the exterior of endothelial cells where it is concentrated at cell junctions. CD31 antibody is also expressed at low levels on all leukocytes and platelets. Homotypic interaction of CD31 is important in cell-cell interaction, cell-matrix interaction and signal transduction. The CD31 antibody is primarily used on a rabbit or mouse, but is also frequently used on human cells where the antibody binds to CD31. Consequently, this can help to evaluate the degree of tumour angiogenesis, which can entail a hastily growing tumour. Additionally, it can be used as markers for myeloid progenitor cells and distinguish various subsets of myeloid leukemia infiltrates (granular sarcomas).

 

VEGF antibody: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor is a signal protein that is formed by cells that stimulates vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. It is part of the system that restores the oxygen supply to tissues when the blood circulation is insufficient. Serum concentration of VEGF is high in bronchial asthma and low in diabetes mellitus. VEGF's standard utility is to produce new blood vessels during embryonic development, new blood vessels after injury, muscle following exercise, and new vessels (collateral circulation) to bypass blocked vessels. VEGF antibodies are commonly used in research applications such as Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry, Immunohistochemistry-Frozen, Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin, Immunoprecipitation, and Western Blot. VEGF can be used in a variety of model species i.e. Bovine (cow), Canine (dog), Porcine (pig), Mouse, Rat, Sheep, and tested on Human tissues. Biorbyt offers a great selection on several antibody products; and the VEGF antibody can drastically help scientists facilitate their research further.

You can safely purchase the CD31 antibody & VEGF antibody to test in various laboratories from Biorbyt Ltd. They are a trusted online antibody and protein supplier that offers great quality products to be sent prompt and securely to your address.
