Creatine Kinase antibody problem. - (Mar/20/2006 )

Dear All,
I got a Creatine Kinase (brain type) antibody from santa Cruz and it didn't work for my western blot. Anybody here happen to know any other sources? Thanks.

I don't know of any sources, but judging from the experiences of my colleagues, half the antibodies from Santa Cruz don't work.

Is there any way you can tag the kinase with an epitope?

Regards,

Matt
