Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine), MW 176, is a catecholamine , a monoamine neurotransmitter, found in abundance in the central nervous system, platelets, brain and spinal cord as well as secreted by enterochromaffin cells (EC) in the stomach, intestines, appendix and in endocrine cells along the gut and in carcinoid tumors.
Platelets and mast cells are rich in serotonin.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA, Dot Blot and Immunohistochemistry.

Form：Supplied as a liquid in PBS, 0.02% sodium merthiolate
Specificity：Recognizes serotonin. Reacts with serotonin-containing fibers in paraformaldehyde perfusion-fixed, frozen sections of rat brain. Staining is seen in enterochromaffin cells in formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded sections of normal human appendix and serotonin-containing carcinoid tumors. Note: Free 5-HT can be used to immunoadsorb anti-serotonin activity.
