Produktinformation

• Name: Heparin antibody
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Heparin antibody is a monoclonal antibody that is used to detect and diagnose heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a condition in which the body's immune system produces antibodies against heparin, a commonly used blood thinner. This antibody specifically targets the complex formed between heparin and platelet factor 4 (PF4), which is responsible for the immune response leading to HIT. Heparin antibody can also be used in research settings to study the interactions between heparin and other molecules, such as insulin. Additionally, this antibody has been used in the development of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, which is used to treat certain types of cancer. Its high specificity and sensitivity make it a valuable tool in various applications within the field of life sciences.
