Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is the main protein component of low density lipoprotein particles (LDL) and it is a large water insoluble molecule of 512 kD (apoB-100) produced mainly in the liver and in the intestine (apoB-48). ApoB is regarded as a negative factor in cardiovascular disease. ApoB-100 is normally 98% of the apoB in plasma and at a concentration of approximately 1 mg/ml.
Mouse monoclonal antibodies to human apolipoprotein B, clones LDL 20/17. Suitable as capture antibodies in ELISA and ELISpot (in combination with clone LDL 11 biotinylated, code 3715-6).
