Active Human Fatty Acid Binding Protein 1 (Liver) Reference Standard

• Cat.No.: FABP1-12H

Specification

• Description: FABP1 (Fatty acid binding protein1) encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in liver. FABP1 is composed of ten antiparallel β strands that form a barrel with a bigger binding pocket than the other FABPs allowing it to accommodate two fatty acid. This protein binds free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules in the cytoplasm; it may be involved in intracellular lipid transport and metabolism.
• Species: Human
• Form: Liquid
• Bio-activity: The level of L-FABP in the serum was quantified using ELISA.
• Usage: For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
• Quality Control Test: Generated from a human serum pool. This lot has been tested by standard laboratory procedures and found to be negative for HIV 1, HIV 2, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.
• Storage: Stored at -20 °C, 4 °C for less than seven days, frozen for greater than seven days.
• Concentration: 32.97 ng/ml
• Preservative: 0.1% sodium azide
