Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antibody binds B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) 5‐13 (VQGSGAFGR). BNP is a naturally secreted cardiac regulatory hormone that influences blood pressure and vascular water retention in human physiology. The plasma BNP concentration is a clinically recognized biomarker for various cardiovascular diseases.
Alternative Names
BNP; hBNP; NPPB; preproBNP; B-type natriuretic peptide; Natriuretic peptides B; Brain natriuretic factor prohormone; Brain natriuretic peptide; Gamma-brain natriuretic peptide; Iso-ANP; HB-12044
UniProt
P16860
Immunogen
The original mouse antibody was generated by immunizing mice with human BNP peptide 5- 13 (VQGSGAFGR) conjugated with BSA.
Application Notes
This antibody can be used for the detection of human BNP using ELISA (PMID: 18606632). This antibody when crosslinked to POROS XL ID resin can also be used in the immunoprecipitation of BNP from plasma samples of patients with chronic heart failure (PMID: 16750161).
