Contributor Information

  • Name Jacqueline Cordell
  • Institute University of Oxford

Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-Biotin [BK-1/39] mAb
  • Clone: BK-1/39
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Cancer type: Gastric
  • Application: IHC ; IHC
  • Description: Anti-Biotin antibodies can be used to detect both biotinylated proteins and nucleic acids. Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin, generally classified as a B-complex vitamin. After the initial discovery of biotin, nearly forty years of research were required to establish it as a vitamin. Biotin is required by all organisms but can only be synthesized by bacteria, yeasts, molds, algae, and some plant species.
  • Immunogen: Biotin conjugated to keyhole limpet haemocyanin
  • Isotype: IgG1
  • Research area: Cancer; Cell biology; Cell signaling and signal transduction; Tags and cell markers; Metabolism
  • Myeloma used: P3/NS1/1-Ag4.1

  • For Research Use Only
