ANP Immunohistochemical staining of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) in rat convoluted tubules in kidney. 4% paraformaldehyde fixed rat kidney 10 μm thick cryostat sections were incubated with rabbit polyclonal antibody to of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) at 10 μg/mL overnight at 4°C followed by incubation with Donkey anti-rabbit Rhodamine Red (pseudo-coloured yellow) conjugated secondary antibodies at 1:200.
Formulation Lyophilized from 10 mM PBS.
Purification Whole IgG
Host Species Rabbit
Unit Size: 50 µg
Immunogen Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) conjugated to BSA.
Sequence: SLRRSSCFGGRIDRIGAQSGLGCNSFRY
Antigen Location (aa): 123-150
Alternative Names Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF).
Accession Number: P01161
Accession Name: (ANF_RAT)
Accession URL: http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P01161
Function: Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) is produced by cardiomyocites and is secreted into the bloodstream. ANP acts on convoluted tubules in kidney reducing sodium absorption which results in reducing the blood pressure.
Applications: Recommended for Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Cytochemistry (ICC).
Working Dilution for Immunofluorescence (ICC): 5 – 15 µg/mL
Working Dilution for Immunohistochemistry (IHC): 5 – 10 µg/mL
IHC Positive control: Heart, kidney.
Specificity: Confirmed by RIA against the synthetic peptide.
Cross-reactivity: Human; mouse; rat. Highly conservative and expected to interact with feline, canine, porcine, bovine, and equine ANP/ANF.
Reconstitution: Reconstitute in 0.05 mL of PBS (pH 7.4) to achieve an antibody concentration of 1000 µg/mL. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material.
Storage / Stability: At least 12 months after purchase at 2 - 4°C. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20°C for a higher stability and at 4°C with an appropriate antibacterial agent. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
