"TC Supernatant" vs. "Purified"

TC Supernatant
Hybridoma tissue-culture supernatant (5mL) generally containing 10-50 ug/mL monoclonal antibody (clone-dependent) can be a very economical choice. Supernatant is suitable for most applications including Western Blot, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry etc. For applications requiring higher antibody concentration or purity (such as immunoprecipitation, microinjection, or conjugation) it is recommended that you purchase the purified form of the antibody (supplied at 1mg/mL).

Purified mAbs
Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma lines followed by Protein A affinity chromatography. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody at 1mg/mL.

Host Species:

Mouse

Antibody Isotype:

IgG2b

Species Reactivity:

Mouse Rat

Applications:

ICC WB

Target Description:

Brevican core protein, Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 7 or Brain-enriched hyaluronan-binding protein is encoded by the gene BCAN and is a member of the lectican family of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. Brevican is involved in the development and formation of the brain extracellular matrix and may be involved in malignancy of brain tumor cells. Brevican is developmentally regulated and specifically expressed in the central nervous system. Diseases associated with this gene include Low-Grade Astrocytoma.

Immunogen:

Fusion protein amino acids 219-655 of rat Brevican (also known as Brevican core protein, Brainenriched hyaluronan-binding protein, BEHAB, BCAN, Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 7 and CSPG7, accession number P55068)
Mouse: 92% identity (403/437 amino acids identical)
Human: 75% identity (350/464 amino acids identical)
40% identity with Aggrecan

Protein Name(s):

Brevican core protein (Brain-enriched hyaluronan-binding protein) (BEHAB)

Gene Name(s):

Bcan Behab

Antibody Registry ID:

Purified: AB_2315822

This antibody has been validated using the following assays:

Knockout Validation:

This antibody has been knockout-validated in mouse brain (by Western blot and/or immunohistochemistry).

Western Blot:

This antibody recognizes a single immunoreactive band of expected molecular weight when used to probe brain lysate.

Immunocytochemistry:

This antibody shows the expected staining pattern when used to stain COS cells overexpressing target.

Immunohistochemistry:

This antibody shows the expected immunoperoxidase-diaminobenzidine / immunofluorescence staining pattern when used to stain brain sections.

Molecular Weight:

140 kDa (and smaller due to proteolytic cleavage)

Quality Control

The following quality control assay is performed on each new lot of this antibody to ensure it meets designated performance requirements.

Each new lot of this antibody is tested to confirm that it recognizes a single immunoreactive band of expected molecular weight when used to probe brain lysate.
