Company:

Aviva Systems Biology

Product Name:

CD44 antibody C-terminal region

Catalog Number:

ARP61023_P050

The ARP61023_P050 antibody was compared in western blot assay with the C-terminal CD44 antibody from Boster proven to detect CD44 localized on the cell membrane of human and murine tumor cells.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Human and murine cell lysates

Primary Incubation

Overnight, cold room

Blocking Agent

5% milk in PBS/0.05% Tween20

Secondary Incubation

Goat anti-rabbit, 1 hr, room temperature

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

West pico

Results Summary

The ARP61023_PO50 failed to detect both full-length CD44 and cleaved cell membrane-retained CD44 fragment in human tumor cells. In contrast, the Boster anti C-terminal CD44 antibody PB1021-2 reliably recognized CD44 in the same cell lysate samples.

Additional Notes

The image demonstrates the full-length and cleaved CD44 detected by the Boster antibody and the lack of comparable CD44-related bands in the case of Aviva antibody.
