Summary:
Clonality: Polyclonal
Specificity: This reacts with human ACTH.
It cross reacts with ACTH in a wide variety of mammalian species.
Traces of contaminating antibodies have been removed by solid phase absorption.
Purity: Immunogen affinity purified
Host: Rabbit
Details:
Immunogen: Synthetic human ACTH 1-24.
Gene Symbol: POMC 
Entrez: 5443 (Human)
Background:
ACTH occurs in cells of the anterior pituitary and in neurons in brain. It regulates the corticosteroid production in the adrenal cortex. Beta endorphin and Met enkephalin are endogenous opiates. MSH (melanocyte stimulating hormone) increases the pigmentation of skin by increasing melanin production in melanocytes.
Species:
Human
Reactivity: Human. Not tested in other species..
*Note not all species have been tested for reactivity. Only those species listed have been tested. We cannot make any guarantees about additional reactivities or cross reactivities beyond those that have been tested. This antibody may or may not react with other species.
Applications:
IHC-P, IHC-Fr
Uses: This antibody has been pretitered and quality controlled to work on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded as well as acetone fixed cryostat tissue sections.
No further titration is required.
We suggest an incubation period of 30-60 minutes at room temperature.
However, depending upon the fixation conditions and the staining system employed, optimal incubation should be determined by the user.
