Keratin 5,6,18 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN6941417

Product Details

Target: Keratin 5,6,18

Reactivity: Human, Rat, Cow

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: Un-conjugated

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

Specificity: It recognizes polypeptides of 58 kDa, 56 kDa, and 45 kDa, identified as cytokeratin 5, 6, and 18 respectively. It shows no reaction with keratin 1, 8, or 19. This MAb shows a broad pattern of reactivity with epithelial tissues, from simple glandular epithelia to stratified squamous epithelia. Epithelial cells are labeled whether they are ectodermal, mesodermal, or endodermal in origin. This MAb is useful in detecting cells of epithelial origin in mixed tumors, in effusions, in bone marrow samples, or in tissue culture cells.

Purification: Purified by Protein A/G

Immunogen: Detergent-insoluble fraction of psoriatic human epidermis

Clone: LP34

Isotype: IgG1 kappa
