Background: This polyclonal antibody reacts with keratin of most mammals and birds. A positive reaction is obtained with all stratified squamous epithelia and in epidermal appendages such as hairfollicles and sebaceous glands. Also the epithelia of the urinary tract, stomach, small and large intestine, uterine endometrium, bile ducts, prostate, kidney collecting tubules, thymic reticulum cells, mesothelium and to a lesser extent hepatocytes, adenocarcinomas, transitional cell carcinomas and anaplastic carcinomas can be identified by this antiserum. Renal cell adenocarcinomas and small cell anaplastic lung tumors may remain negative when examined in paraffin sections. Hepatocytes and pancreatic acini show a positive staining. Nearly all cultured epithelial cells are positive, all non-epithelial cells are negative.
