Calpastatin Antibodies
AND CAST ELISA kits, Calpastatin Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect Calpastatin, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with Calpastatin in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop Calpastatin antibodies...
Designing a Western blot for Calpastatin? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

CAST Overview
Facts about Calpastatin.
Calpastatin (CAST)
Specific inhibition of calpain (calcium-dependent cysteine protease). Plays a crucial role in postmortem tenderization of meat and have been proposed to be involved in muscle protein degradation in living tissue.
