This antibody has been pretitered and quality controlled to work allon formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded as well as acetone fixed cryostat tissue sections. No further titration is required. We suggest an incubation period of 60 minutes at room temperature. However, depending upon the fixation conditions and the staining system employed, optimal incubation should be determined by the user. Proteolytic treatment is required prior to immunostaining of formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections.:
This antibody is specific to human cytokeratins 8 (52.5 kDa) and 18 (45 kDa). This antibody stains simple and glandular epithelium. This antibody can be useful for the identification of adenocarcinomas and most squamous cell carcinomas.
