General description

Glial fibrillary acidic protein is a class-III intermediate filament. GFAP is the main constituent of intermediate filaments in astrocytes and serves as a cell specific marker that distinguishes differentiated astrocytes from other glial cells during the development of the central nervous system.

Specificity

The antibody reacts with mouse GFAP. In tissue sections this
antibody stains astrocytes and Bergman glia cells (Debus, E., 1983).

Immunogen

Purified glial filament protein (Debus, E., 1983).

Application

Anti-GFAP Antibody, Cy3 Conjugate is an antibody against GFAP for use in IC, IH.
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected GFAP in adult mouse brain tissue.
