Description

EpCAM antibody validated for immunohistochemistry on 76 different Normal Tissues

Research Area

Immunology & Inflammation

Images & Validation

• Tested Applications: IHC
• Dilution Range: 1:100-1:200
• Reactivity: Human
• Application Notes:
  Positive Control: Kidney: In kidney, distal tubule cells must show a strong predominantly membranous staining, while at a least moderate predominantly basolateral staining must be seen in the majority of proximal tubules cells and in scattered epithelial cells lining the Bowman capsule. Negative Control: Tonsil: EpCAM staining should be absent in lymphocytes or smooth muscle cells of the vessels. Cellular Localization: Cell Surface & Cytoplasmic Protocol Recommendations: Manual Protocol: Freshly cut sections should be used (less than 10 days between cutting and staining). Heat-induced antigen retrieval for 5 minutes in an autoclave at 121°C in pH 7.8 Target Retrieval Solution buffer. Apply the antibody at a dilution of 1:150 at 37°C for 60 minutes. Visualization of bound antibody by the EnVision Kit according to the manufacturer’s directions.
