Application Protocols
Item-specific validated applications, recommended dilutions, incubation times, antigen retrieval conditions, and detection systems are Not specified for this item; refer to CoA/Spec Sheet.
General notes (non-item-specific, no parameter claims):
Verify antibody compatibility with your assay format (e.g., ELISA, WB, IHC, IF, IP, FC) and sample type before large experiments.
Perform a small-scale titration to establish working ranges and signal-to-background on your platform.
Use appropriate positive/negative controls and include isotype controls where relevant.
Defer to the product’s CoA/Spec Sheet for authoritative, item-specific protocols.
Biological Roles
Antigen overview (literature): Thrombomodulin (also known as CD141, THBD) is an endothelial cell surface glycoprotein that serves as a high-affinity cofactor for thrombin, modulating protease specificity toward activation of protein C and thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI). It plays roles in hemostasis regulation, limiting coagulation on intact endothelium.
Localization (literature): Predominantly expressed on vascular endothelium; also reported on certain hematopoietic and stromal cell types. Exists as a transmembrane protein with an extracellular lectin-like domain, EGF-like repeats, a serine/threonine-rich region, a transmembrane helix, and a short cytoplasmic tail.
Functional implications (literature):
By forming a thrombin–thrombomodulin complex, thrombin’s procoagulant activities are reduced while anticoagulant pathways are engaged via protein C activation.
The lectin-like domain has been implicated in modulating inflammatory signaling and cell–cell interactions in vitro.
Experimental utility (general): Antibodies to thrombomodulin are used to detect endothelial cells, to study coagulation pathway regulation, and to examine endothelial activation states in cell and tissue models.
Note: The above biological description reflects general literature knowledge about the thrombomodulin antigen and does not imply any item-specific validation, performance characteristics, or clinical use.
Buffer Applications
Working buffers (general, literature):
PBS or TBS at pH ~7.2–7.6 are common for antibody dilution. Include 0.05–0.1% Tween-20 for wash steps in ELISA/WB to reduce nonspecific binding.
Blocking agents: 1–5% BSA, nonfat dry milk, or serum (species-appropriate) depending on assay to suppress background.
Stabilizers for storage/handling: 0.1–1% BSA and/or 5–50% glycerol can enhance stability for aliquots; item-specific formulation Not specified for this item.
Sample preparation considerations:
Avoid chelators/detergents that disrupt antigen–antibody interactions unless assay demands it. Maintain isotonic conditions for cell-based assays.
Compatibility notes:
Sodium azide (if present; Not specified for this item) inhibits horseradish peroxidase; avoid in HRP-based detection steps.
Recipes (no item-specific claims): Prepare buffers with ultrapure water, filter (0.22 µm) for sterility, and pre-equilibrate to assay temperature.
For this item, exact recommended buffers and dilutions are Not specified; refer to CoA/Spec Sheet and adapt to platform-specific best practices.
Green Alternatives
Green chemistry considerations are limited for aqueous antibody reagents but sustainability can be improved through handling and procurement choices.
Minimizing waste:
Prepare only required working volumes to reduce expired waste.
Use reusable secondary containment and avoid single-use plastics where sterility permits.
Solvent/environmental profile:
Antibody formulations are typically aqueous and avoid hazardous organic solvents; maintain this by refraining from adding volatile organics.
Preservatives and disposal:
If sodium azide or other biocides are present (Not specified for this item), segregate waste and avoid copper/lead plumbing. Follow local regulations.
Storage efficiency:

Relevant laboratory applications (general context; not item-specific):
Immunoassays such as ELISA, Western blotting, immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation, and flow cytometry when properly validated.
Antigen capture/purification when immobilized on solid supports (e.g., Protein A/G-coupled resin workflows).
For this item: Validated applications and tested dilutions are Not specified for this item; refer to CoA/Spec Sheet. Prior to use, confirm compatibility with your assay and sample type.
Reaction Conditions
Not applicable to chemical reactions. As an antibody reagent, performance depends on immunoassay conditions rather than stoichiometric or catalytic reaction parameters.

Solvent Selection
This product is an aqueous protein reagent rather than an organic-soluble compound; solvent selection focuses on buffer systems rather than organic solvents.
Buffer compatibility (general, literature):
Common working buffers: PBS (pH 7.2–7.4), TBS (pH 7.4–7.6), and assay-specific buffers containing 0.05–0.1% nonionic detergents (e.g., Tween-20) to reduce nonspecific binding.
Protein stabilizers: 0.1–1% BSA, 5–10% glycerol, and sugars (trehalose/sucrose) can enhance stability; item-specific formulation Not specified for this item; refer to CoA/Spec Sheet.
Organic solvents: Not recommended; organic content (e.g., >10–20% methanol, acetonitrile, DMSO) can denature antibodies.
pH and ionic strength: Maintain near-neutral pH (6.8–7.6) for most IgGs; high salt can mitigate nonspecific interactions in assays but may affect binding.
