Further Information

Application Details:
Flow cytometry: 1-2ug/million cells,Western blot: 1-2ug/ml,Immunofluorescence: 1-2ug/ml,Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 2-4ug/ml for 30 min at RT
Application Note:
Optimal dilution of the Cytokeratin 18 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in pH 9 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min
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.

Description:
This mAb reacts with a wide variety of simple epithelia. It does not react with stratified squamous epithelia. It reacts with epithelial tumors of the gastrointestinal tract, lung, breast, pancreas, ovary, and thyroid. Cytokeratin 18, which belongs to the type A (acidic) subfamily of low molecular weight keratins, exists in combination with cytokeratin 8. It was reported that tissues from gastrointestinal tract are positive for both cytokeratin 8 and 18 but do not contain cytokeratin 14. Tissues from gastrointestinal tract, respiratory tract and urogenital tract, as well as endocrine and exocrine tissues and mesothelial cells are positive for cytokeratin 18.
Format:
Purified
Formulation:
1 mg/ml in 1X PBS; BSA free, sodium azide free
Immunogen:
A cytoskeletal preparation from A431 cells was used as the immunogen for the Cytokeratin 18 antibody.
Limitation:
This Cytokeratin 18 antibody is available for research use only.
Localization:
Cytoplasmic
