Product Details

Target: Cytokeratin, Multi (Epithelial Marker)

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Reactivity: Cow, Frog, Goat, Guinea Pig, Human, Monkey, Mouse, Pig, Rat

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: Un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Staining Methods (StM)

Specificity: Twenty human keratins are resolved with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis into acidic (pI 6.0) subfamilies. This antibody recognizes acidic (Type I or LMW) and basic (Type II or HMW) cytokeratins, including 59 kDa (CK4), 58 kDa (CK5), 56 kDa (CK6), 52 kDa (CK8), 56.5 kDa (CK10), 53 kDa (CK13) and 45 kDa (CK18). This is a broad-spectrum antibody, which has been reported to differentiate epithelial tumors from non-epithelial tumors. Many studies have shown the usefulness of keratins as markers in cancer research and tumor diagnosis.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Keratin-enriched preparation from cultured human epithelial cells

Clone: RKRT-457
