Application Notes

This antibody has very high specificity for Aβ1-42 over Aβ1-40. This antibody is capable of immunoprecipitating Aβ peptides ending at aa position 42 and also p3 peptides (PMID: 8917563). This antibody is also recomended for detection of amyloid beta using sandwich ELISA (PMID: 9037091, 19204155). This antibody was also used in the quantification of the proportion of full-length Aβ using western blotting (PMID: 12787077). This antibody has also been used for the identification of Aβ42 plaques on paraffin frontal sections(PMID: 15215183, 19660650). This antibody is unable to bind plaques in unfixed brain sections. This antibody is also not capable of clearing plaque after in vivo administration (PMID: 10932230).

Short Description

This chimeric human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG2b format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
