Hepatitis C Virus NS3 (HCV) Antibody – Mouse Monoclonal

Description: MAb to HCV NS-3, Monoclonal Antibody to Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), NS-3.

Introduction: HCV is a small 50nm, enveloped, single-stranded, positive sense RNAvirus in the family Flaviviridae. HCV has a high rate of replication with approximately one trillion particles produced each day in an infected individual. Due to lack of proofreading by the HCV RNA polymerase, the HCV has an exceptionally high mutation rate, a factor that may help it elude the host's immune response. Hepatitis C virus is classified into six genotypes(1-6) with several subtypes within each genotype. The preponderance and distribution of HCV genotypes varies globally. Genotype is clinically important in determining potential response to interferon-based therapy and the required duration of such therapy. Genotypes 1 and 4 are less responsive to interferon-based treatment than are the other genotypes (2, 3, 5 and 6).

Small volumes of anti-HCV antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

Human infections with Hepatitis C virus HCV NS3 are a great public health concern. These chronic hepatitis virus infections result in liver dysfunction and cancer and are problematic to treat or cure. Thus, the need for further exploration into biology is essential. We provide an economical and sensitive anti hepatitis virus NS3 mouse monoclonal antibody for your research purposes. This custom antibody is ideal to detect a wide range of protein concentration by IHC, ELISA or western blot protocols using secondary antibodies against the heavy chain and labeled with AMP, ALEXA 174 fluor or DYlight 174 fluorescent probes. In side by side primary antibody comparisons across products category or rat primary antibodies reagents, our virus NS3 antibody out performs all others in cell signaling assays, cellular biochemical assays or flow cytometry methods. Use our resources to find the best goat anti mouse IgG1 for this and other marker antibodies.
