Can you suggest the best antibody for aspartate aminotransferase that is muscle specific?

26 April 2016 1 5K Report

Can you suggest the best antibody for aspartate aminotransferase that is muscle specific? I would like to differentiate liver from muscle AST. Also, what would be the best lab method to use for this purpose?

Thanks

Russell Linscott

There are many Abs available against AST. But AST from many sources, so difficult to determine specificity from muscle. The immunogen for Rockland's is porcine heart, so maybe??

Our listing of it is here: http://www.linscottsdirectory.com/antibodies/rockland-immunochemicals-inc/Aspartate-Transaminase-12338671

Good luck.
