Application Note:
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.5-1 ug/ml for 30 min at RT (1)

Prediluted format: incubate for 30 min at RT (2)

The optimal dilution of the EpCAM antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Citrate Buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Background:
EGP40 is a 40-43kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, also identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. This antibody has been used to distinguish adenocarcinoma from pleural mesothelioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. This antibody is also useful in distinguishing serous carcinomas of the ovary from mesothelioma.
Buffer:
PBS with 0.1 mg/ml BSA and 0.05% sodium azide
Concentration:
0.2 mg/mL

Unconjugated
DISCLAIMER:
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. The information provided is a guideline for product use. This product is for research use only.
Immunogen:
Neuraminidase treated GLS-1 human small cell lung carcinoma cells were used as the immunogen for this EpCAM antibody. The epitope has been localized to amino acids 27-59.
