Since Santa Cruz discontinued their awesome rabbit antibodies a year ago, I have yet to find a replacement. Any recommendation on antibodies for Western blot? The antibody must recognize the mature form.
Hello
You can try with
# Anti-BDNF antibody [3C11] (ab203573)
# Anti-BDNF antibody [3B2] (ab205067)
http://www.abcam.com
# Anti-BDNF antibody produced in rabbit
https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/av41970?lang=en®ion=SA
Good Luck
Hey Cheng-Ying,
I'd suggest try searching on BenchSci (www.benchsci.com) to find antibodies that have been published.
You can filter by Rabbit Host & Western Blot to narrow down the antibodies and published data. As shown in the screenshot, both Abcam and EMD has good candidate antibodies.
I hope this helps!

pAbmAbs has a few user reviews of anti-BDNF Abs you may want to look at: http://pabmabs.com/wordpress/
Beware that the mature part of BDNF have some similarities with NGF, NTF3 and NTF4. So, you need to find an antibody binding to a unique epitope if you need to prevent cross-reactivity. Contact me if you need further assistance.
