Rabbit Anti-VhH antibody can be used to detect single domain VhH antibodies. The single-domain antibody (sdAb) is a small (12 - 14 kDa) antibody fragment that consists of a monomeric variable domain derived from the heavy chain, also called a VhH antibody. These heavy chain only Fab-like domains have activity that is similar to a whole antibody, and they are able to bind to a specific antigens. SdAb's are derived from camelid species that include llamas, alpacas and camels. Camelids produce both classical (containing heavy and light chain fragments) and non-classical antibody structures (containing only a heavy chain). VhH antibodies are the smallest functional antigen-binding fragment that occurs in nature and these are now being used in biotechnology as a novel antibody scaffold. The small size of the VhH single domain antibody makes it very attractive for use in diagnostic imaging and they have potential for therapeutic activity.

Anti-VhH antibody has been tested by ELISA and Western Blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Some cross-reactivity to E.coli proteins may be observed.
