MSTN Antibodies

AND MSTN ELISA kits, MSTN Proteins

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

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to MSTN by testing them on tissues known to express MSTN positively and negatively. Browse below to find the MSTN antibody that suites your experiment. We have 7 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.
