PIGS Antibodies

AND PIGS ELISA kits, PIGS Proteins

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

We validate the specificity of these antibodies to PIGS by testing them on tissues known to express PIGS positively and negatively. Browse below to find the PIGS 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.
