Monoclonal Antibody to Calbindin(Clone: 4H7)

Figure-1: Immunofluorescent analysis of rat brain cerebellum section stained with mouse mAb to calbindin,(34-1018), dilution 1:1,000, in green, and costained with rabbit pAb to calretinin, dilution 1:5,000 in red. The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA Following transcardial perfusion with 4% paraformaldehyde, brain was post fixed for 24 hours, cut to 45μM, and free-floating sections were stained with the above antibodies. Calbindin antibody prominently labels the dendrites and perikarya of Purkinje cells in the molecular layer of cerebellum. In contrast the calretinin antibody stains granule cells, in the granualar layer, and their processes in the molecular layer.
