• NCBI Gene ID:

  100124407

• Reactivity:

  Rat

• Storage Conditions:

  Lyophilized powder may be stored at 4 °C for short-term only. Reconstitute to nominal volume by adding sterile 40-50% glycerol and store at -20 °C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20 °C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

• Specificity:

  Recognizes CGRP (rat) and the reactivity of CGRP (human) is greater than 1%. Does not react to Calcitonin (salmon), Osteocalcin (bovine), ACTH, ANP (human, rat), LHRH, PTH (1-84) and VIP. Specific for this peptide and is suitable for immunocytochemical detection of rat CGRP.
