Product Name:

NF-κB1 p105/p50 (D7H5M) Rabbit mAb

Catalog Number:

12540

I used this antibody to measure NF-kB activation in mouse CD4+ T cells upon stimulation with our treatment. I was looking for an antibody that I can use for both human and mouse and I found this one.

Results Summary

I used this antibody to measure NF-kB activation in CD4+ T cells. Even though I got a single band without non-specific bands, intensity of the band was too weak and required longer exposure time.

Summary

The Good

Can be used for both human and mouse proteins

The Bad
