IsoType		IgG1
[Ab]		3-5 mg/mL
Specificity		Tau 13 is a mouse monoclonal antibody (MAb) that binds to human tau and is able to stain brain tissue early in Alzheimer’s disease. Tau 13 is specific for human tau; it does not react with bovine, murine or rat tau. Preliminary assignment of its epitope indicates that it maps to amino acid residues 2-18 on the longest isoform of human tau.
Uses		These antibodies are effective in immunoblotting, immunostaining, immunoprecipitation and ELISA.
