Uses

Anti-GM-CSF antibody produced in chicken is suitable for western blotting at a working dilution of 1:500 and for cell staining at a working dilution of 1:200. It is also suitable for indirect ELISA.

General Description

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is also termed as CSF-2. It is a glycoprotein that consists of 127 amino acids. This gene is located on human chromosome 5q31.
