Reviews
What customers say
Both reviewers gave 5-star ratings. One used the antibody for Western Blot on HEK 293T cells transfected with CACNA1A constructs at a 1:5000 dilution, reporting a clear ~280 kDa band with no unspecific signals in the negative control. The other applied it for Immunohistochemistry on rhesus monkey brainstem sections at 1:100 dilution, successfully visualizing Cav2.1 staining in Purkinje cells using the immunoperoxidase method (DAB-Nickel). Overall, users report strong specificity and reliable performance across applications.

Lea (Verified Customer) (10-08-2024) | I transfected HEK 293T cells with 2 different CACNA1A constructs (12Q and 27Q, 2 replicates each) and an empty vector as a negative control. The expected band at ~280 kDa is clearly visible in the western blot and no unspecific bands are visible in the negative control. I was very happy with the results.
