Description

Description

Specificity
Mouse Anti-Human Alpha-1 Fetoprotein (AFP) (Clone 166) recognizes Human Alpha-1 Fetoprotein. This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype.
Background
Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a significant protein in fetal plasma, playing a crucial role in development. While typically found at low levels in adults, its elevated presence can indicate certain tumors, making it a valuable tumor marker in clinical diagnostics. During fetal development, AFP is primarily produced by the yolk sac and liver, and it's widely considered the fetal equivalent of serum albumin. This versatile protein is known to bind to substances like copper, nickel, fatty acids, and bilirubin, and it can exist in monomeric, dimeric, or trimeric forms, impacting its biological function and detection. Researchers and diagnostic developers rely on high-quality AFP antibodies for accurate detection and quantification in various applications, from cancer research to prenatal screening.
