Used in research and diagnostic applications to detect and bind specifically to the RG1 epitope, this antibody serves as a critical tool in immunoassays such as ELISA, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. It is commonly employed to study protein expression and localization in cells and tissues, particularly in neuroscience and cancer research. Due to its high specificity and consistent performance, it acts as a reliable reference standard for validating other anti-RG1 antibodies and optimizing assay conditions. It is also utilized in therapeutic antibody development to benchmark binding affinity and functional activity.
