Additional Information

Alternative name Calcitonin
Immunogen Synthetic human calcitonin 1-32 amino acid peptide.
Format Supernatant (prediluted)
Isotype IgG  (Matching secondary antibodies)
Clone SP17
Specificity This antibody recognizes Calcitonin, which is a 32 amino acid peptide, which can be demonstrated in C cells of the normal and hyperplastic thyroid. Staining for calcitonin may be used for the identification of a spectrum of C cell proliferative abnormalities ranging from C cell hyperplasia to invasive tumors. Staining for calcitonin in medullary carcinoma of the thyroid produces a fine granular pattern in the cytoplasm. Amyloid deposits within the tumor may also exhibit varying degrees of calcitonin activity. This antibody crossreacts with Human, Monkey, Mouse, Rat, Dog, Horse, Sheep and Pig.

Application Details

Application Notes Staining Protocol: We suggest an incubation period of 30 minutes at room temperature. However, depending upon the fixation conditions and the staining system employed, optimal incubation should be determined by the user. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections require high temperature antigen unmasking with 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 prior to immunostaining. Positive Control: Thyroid or Medullary carcinoma. Cellular localization: Cytoplasmic
Concentration 1 to 4 ug/ml
Buffer This antibody has been pretitered and quality controlled to work on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded as well as acetone fixed cryostat tissue sections. No further titration is required.
Storage Store the antibody at 2-8o c. Do not use it beyond the expiration date stated on the label.
Research Area Hormones
Restrictions For Research Use. CE-certified for In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Use in the European Union
