Thank you - just having a look.

Seems they are using it to assay holoTC in that paper.

Scientist, not medic.

What you've discovered here is a mouse monoclonal antibody that is being marketed for scientific purposes. It's not a blood test. The material is used analytically. Mouse monoclonals are used in all sorts of ways. There's thousands of them out there. Some are used therapeutically.

Not what you're looking for?
