Perforin antibodies

We make 7 Perforin antibodies for human, unconjugated or conjugated to biotin, FITC, PF488P, or PF647P. This page explains how they differ, so you can pick the one your experiment needs.

Rather use a ready-made kit? See our Perforin ELISA kits and Perforin ELISpot kits.

What differs between these antibodies

Which clone

We make 4 Perforin antibody clones. A clone is one specific antibody that binds one site on its target, so it is what you cite or reorder by name. A sandwich assay needs two clones that bind different sites; the capture and detection pairs below are matched for that.

Which conjugate

Unconjugated antibodies carry no label. You coat a plate with them as the capture antibody, or use them where the antibody itself is the reagent. Biotinylated antibodies are detected with a streptavidin conjugate, such as streptavidin-ALP or streptavidin-HRP. FITC, PF488P, and PF647P are fluorophores, for detection by fluorescence.

Capture and detection pairs

To build your own Perforin ELISA or ELISpot, coat with the unconjugated capture antibody and detect with the biotinylated detection antibody, then a streptavidin conjugate. These are the same pairs our own kits use.

About Perforin

Perforin is produced by cytotoxic T cells and NK cells as an effector molecule in the cell-mediated destruction of target cells. Perforin is responsible for pore formation and facilitates the delivery of granzymes which induces apoptosis of the target cell.
