MC-LR / Anti-Microcystin-LR monoclonal antibody

  Description:

Mouse monoclonal (Clone: 3C9) antibody

  Background:

Cyanobacterial toxins can induce toxic effects both in humans and in the environment. Among them, microcystins (MCs) are the best described and most diverse group of cyanobacterial toxins. Moreover, they are the toxins most frequently produced by freshwater cyanobacteria genera. Among so many variants, microcystin-leucine arginine (MC-LR) is the most common and most studied congener, followed by MC-RR (with two arginines at positions 2 and 4). Currently, MC-LR is considered as the reference compound among MCs because of its toxicity and high occurrence.
