Defensin-6 Antibodies

AND DEFA6 ELISA kits, Defensin-6 Proteins

Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Defensin-6, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Defensin-6 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Defensin-6 antibodies...

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to Defensin-6 by testing them on tissues known to express DEFA6 positively and negatively. Browse below to find the DEFA6 antibody that suites your experiment. We have 2 of these antibodies and many publications and validation images.

If you cannot find antibodies that fit your needs, contact us for making custom antibodies. We have a full suite of custom antibody services covering from research to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
