Characteristics Synonyms: CALCA, CALC1
Alternative name Calcitonin
Swiss-Prot P01258
Immunogen Synthetic human calcitonin
Format Serum
Description Calcitonin is produced by the C-cells of the thyroid. The antibody can be used in thediagnosis of medullary carcinoma and of C-cell hyperplasia. Calcitonin may also occur inbronchial carcinoids and in tumors of adrenal medulla and of panreatic islets.
Specificity Reactive with calcitonin. Species: Human, mouse, rat, rabbit. Others not tested. Add. Information: Specificity has been tested by immunoblotting and Ouchterlony.

Application Details

Application Notes Western Blot. Immunofluorescence. Immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin embedded tissues: 1: 50 - 1: 100 (diluteimmediately before use with PBS). Incubation time: 30 min at room temperature orovernight at 2-8C. No proteolytic treatment required. The antibody shows a cytoplasmic staining. Recommended positive control: Thyroid. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.
Storage Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Shelf life: one year from despatch.
