Keratin 5/8 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6937713

Product Details anti-Keratin 5/8 Antibody

Target: Keratin 5/8 (KRT5/8)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Keratin 5/8 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Specificity: It reacts with keratin 5 (58 kDa) and keratin 8 (52.5 kDa). Simple epithelia express cytokeratin 8 in combination with 18. On the other hand, basal cells of stratified epithelia express cytokeratin 5 paired with 14. This antibody therefore, reacts with a wide range of epithelia and their carcinomas.

No Cross-Reactivity: Chicken, Xenopus laevis
