This is a broad-spectrum antibody which has been reported to differentiate epithelial tumors from non-epithelial tumors. Many studies have shown the usefulness of keratins as markers in cancer research and tumor diagnosis.

Applications: 
Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, Flow Cytometry, Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1ug/million cells 
Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1.0ug/ml 
Western Blot: 0.5-1.0ug/ml 
Immunohistochemistry: Frozen & formalin-fixed: 0.5-1.0ug/ml for 30 min at RT
(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
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Positive Control:
A431 cells, Skin, Colon carcinoma

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C before opening. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. Stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. APC is light sensitive.

Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
