TTF-1 / Thyroid Transcription Factor 1 / NKX2-1 antibody

SKU: orb2276212

Description

TTF-1 / Thyroid Transcription Factor 1 / NKX2-1 antibody validated for immunohistochemistry on 76 different Normal Tissues

Images & Validation

• Tested Applications: IHC
• Dilution Range: 1:100-1:200
• Reactivity: Human
• Application Notes:
  Positive Control: Lung: Nuclear TTF1 staining should be strong in pneumocytes and in basal cells of the terminal bronchioles while a weaker, still moderate to strong staining should be seen in columnar epithelial cells of the terminal bronchioles (low expressor control). Negative Control: Liver: TTF1 staining must not be seen in any cells. Cellular Localization: Nucleus 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 1:100 at 37°C for 60 minutes. Visualization of bound antibody by the EnVision Kit (Dako, Agilent) according to the manufacturer’s directions.
