Product Summary for Cytokeratin 18 Antibody (DE-K18) - Azide and BSA Free
Immunogen
Cytoskeletal preparation extracted from the human vulvar squamous carcinoma cell line A431
Reactivity Notes
Does not react with Rat.
Localization
Cytoplasmic
Specificity
This monoclonal antibody 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.

Applications for Cytokeratin 18 Antibody (DE-K18) - Azide and BSA Free
Application
Recommended Usage
Flow Cytometry
0.5 - 1 ug/million cells in 0.1 ml
Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin
2 - 4 ug/ml
Application Notes
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed): 2-4ug/ml for 30 min at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.
In Simple Western only 10 - 15 ul of the recommended dilution is used per data point. Separated by Size.
