Mouse anti-Alpha-Fetoprotein, clone MBS-12 (Monoclonal)

Clone Number: MBS-12

Immunogen: alpha fetoprotein isolated from serum of hepatoma patients

Concentration: 100 ug/ml

Storage buffer: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide

Additional info: MBS-12 specifically detects AFP. This protein is one of the major serum proteins in the early life of mammals and through to be fetal counterpart of albumin. AFP production is reactivated in the adult during liver regeneration and hepatocarcinogenesis, though in some individuals it persists into adulthood naturally. It is positive on all yolk sac tumors, on some other germ cell tumors and on hepatocellular carcinomas.
