Mouse anti β actin a5316

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

Mouse anti-β-actin (A5316) is a monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the β-actin isoform of the actin protein. Actin is a ubiquitous cytoskeletal protein found in all eukaryotic cells. This antibody is commonly used as a loading control in Western blot analysis to normalize protein expression levels across samples.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
