Anti-Parvalbumin Antibody
Our Anti-Parvalbumin chicken polyclonal primary antibody detects human, mouse, and rat Parvalbumin, and is IgY preparation. It is validated for use in IHC-Frozen, WB.
Left: Staining of parvalbumin in adult rat cerebellum floating section by Immunohistochemistry. Chicken antibody to parvalbumin (1:2,500, green) stains dendrites and perikarya of Purkinje cells and some interneurons in the molecular layer. Blue: Nuclear DNA stain. Right: Western blot analysis of parvalbumin expression in mouse skeletal muscle homogenate (Lane 1). The antibody (1:2,500) detects parvalbumin at ~12 kDa in homogenate (Lane 1) and His-tagged parvalbumin protein (Lane 2) at slightly higher molecular weight. The antibody does not cross-react with His-tagged proteins calretinin (Lane 3) and calbindin (Lane 4). Note that this antibody does not recognize parvalbumin in rat or mouse brain lysates on western blots.

Spin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute with 50 µL sterile-filtered, ultrapure water. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material. Store lyophilized antibody at 2-8°C. After reconstitution divide into aliquots and store at -20°C for long-term storage. Store at 2-8°C short-term (up to 4 weeks) with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Avoid repetitive freeze/thaw cycles.
Lyophilized
Lyophilized IgY preparation, with sodium azide.
WB: 1:1000-1:5000
IHC: 1:1000-1:5000
IHC: 1:1000-1:5000
Note that this antibody does not recognize parvalbumin in rat or mouse brain homogenates on Western blots.
Unconjugated
Reacts with human, rat, mouse. Antibody is specific for parvalbumin and does not recognize closely related proteins calretinin and calbindin as determined by Western Blotting.
