Clone Number: EBS-CD-036
Immunogen: MeWo cell membranes
Concentration: 100 ug/ml
Storage buffer: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide
Additional info: EBS-CD-036 reacts with CD63 and is mainly used in combination with EBS-CD-147 and/or anti-PEM (MUC1) to identify melanoma from carcinoma in paraffin sections. Melanomas are EBS-CD-036 and EBS-CD-147 positive, but PEM negative. EBS-CD-036 reacts in frozen sections with melanoma and breast cancers, smooth muscle and lung (weakly). In paraffin sections melanomas (primary skin, uveal and choroidal), melanoma metastases, clear cell CA, carcinoids, skin nevi, medullary CA of thyroid, prostate CA, some breast, ovary, lung, colorectal and bladder CA positive. Normal tissues that are positive include: mast cells, sweat glands, Islets of Langerhans, pituitary, pancreas, peribronchial glads, Paneth cells and prostate glands.
