Antigen: Hepatocyte Specific Antigen

Clonality: Monoclonal (OCH1E5)

Host: Mouse

Reactivity: Human

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Catalog no.: ABIN125517

Additional Information

Immunogen: Human liver fixed in formalin.

Format: Supernatant

Isotype: IgG1

Clone: OCH1E5

Specificity: Hepatoblastoma is the most common primary tumor of the liver in children. The use of specific hepatocyte markers and also of alpha Fetoprotein or carcinoembryonic antigen are useful for the identification of normal and malignant fetal hepatocytes. This antibody recognizes an uncharacterized antigen present in both adults and fetal normal hepatocytes to produce a distinct granular cytoplasmic staining. This antibody stains majority of hepatocellular carcinomas.

Application Details

Application Notes: Titer/Working Dilution: This antibody may be diluted to a titer of 1:25-1:50 in an ABC method. However, depending on the staining conditions employed, we suggest that final dilution should be determined by the user. Staining Protocol: We suggest an incubation period of 60 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 tissues do not require any special treatment.
