Clone Number: C-51
Immunogen: cytoskeleton preparation from HeLa cells
Concentration: 100 ug/ml
Storage buffer: PBS with 0.02% sodium azide
Additional info: C-51 reacts with keratin 8 (52.5 kDa) + 18 (45 kDa) polypeptides and recognizes all simple epithelia including glandular epithelium, for example thyroid, female breast, gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract, and urogenital tract including transitional epithelium. All adenocarcinomas and most squamous carcinomas are positive but keratinizing squamous carcinomas are usually negative. This antibody is useful in demonstrating the presence of Paget cells; there is very little keratin 18 in the normal epidermis so only Paget cells are stained
