Why this antibody stands out:

The first rabbit polyclonal anti-pan-AMPAR antibody available
While most antibodies in this space are monoclonal formats with limited validation, this unique antibody offers a great alternative — ideal for detecting AMPA receptors in vitro with broader epitope recognition and excellent clarity.

Validation you can trust
Existing tools lack robust testing or show unexpected localisation. This antibody is different: it's validated for western blot and ICC, and produces clear dendritic receptor clustering – precisely where AMPARs should localise. No nuclear artefacts. No ambiguous signal. Just confidence in your results.

Part of our ValidAb™ range
All ValidAb™ antibodies meet stringent in-house QC benchmarks to ensure clear banding, low background, and reproducibility – helping you move forward with fewer technical uncertainties.

A new tool for AMPA receptor studies
This antibody expands the limited selection of pan-AMPAR tools available. With stronger validation and trusted specificity, it offers a more reliable choice for researchers studying glutamate receptor signalling.

 

Ideal for:


Quantifying total AMPA receptor expression

✔  Visualising AMPAR localisation in dendrites

✔  In vitro applications including ICC and western blot

Scientists needing updated, trustworthy AMPAR tools
