		Technical Data
F0019-90	Fatty Acid Binding Protein 7, Brain (B-FABP, BLBP, Brain lipid-binding protein, DKFZp547J2313, FABPB, Fatty acid-binding protein, brain, Fatty acid-binding protein 7, Mammary-derived growth inhibitor related, MRG)

Description:
FABP7 (Fatty acid binding protein 7) is also known as brain fatty acid-binding protein (B-FABP) and is a member of fatty acid-binding proteins (FABPs) which are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins to bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. FABP7 is expressed in radial glia by the activation of Notch receptors and binds DHA with the highest affinity among all of FABPs.

Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 1:1000-2000
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Hybridoma:
Hybridization of mouse F0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with a recombinant human FABP7 protein.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
