Anti-Collagen Type I (COL1A1) Antibody

Collagen Type I extracted and purified from rat skin. Antibody shows less than 0.1% reactivity with human, mouse, chicken Collagen Type I, rat Collagen Types II, III and V and rat Elastin.

Collagen Type I extracted and purified from rat skin.

Anti-Rat Collagen Type I Antibody is an antibody against Collagen Type I for use in ELISA, IC, IH(P), RIA.

ELISA:
A 1:200 dilution of a previous lot was used in ELISA.

RIA:
A previous lot of this antibody was used in RIA.

Immunocytochemistry:
A 1:40-1:80 dilution of a previous lot was used for immunofluorescent staining of frozen rat skin and liver tissues.
Can also be used for acetone-fixed cells.

Immunohistochemistry:
1:40-1:80 dilution for immunofluorescent staining of frozen rat skin and liver tissues. The antibody is also reactive on paraffin embedded rat tissues (skin, liver) at a tdilution of 1:500 using an ABC detection system.

Not recommended for Western blots.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Recognizes Rat Collagen Type I

The antibody shows less than 0.1% reactivity with human, mouse, chicken Collagen Type I, rat Collagen Types II, III and V and rat Elastin.

The purified antibody is supplied in a buffer containing a mixture of 0.1M Citrate, 0.1M potassium phosphate, at a pH of 7.2-7.4 and 10µl/ml of antibiotics and antimycotics.

Control
Rat hepatic stellate cell lysate

Immunohistochemistry(paraffin):
Collagen Type I (cat. # AB755P) staining pattern/morphology in rat skin. Tissue is pre-treated with Citrate pH 6.0, antigen retrieval. This lot of antibody is diluted to 1:1000, using IHC-Select reagents used with HRP-DAB. Immunoreactivity is seen fiber-staining on paraffin section. Note that the staining pattern is as expected.

IHC-Paraffin Staining With Epitope Retrieval: Rat Skin
