| Gene name: |
AFP |
| Other gene names: |
AFP, AFPD, FETA, HPAFP, HPAFP, AFP |
| Clonality: |
Monoclonal |
| Immunoglobulin isotype: |
kappa, IgG2a |
| Clone: |
SPM334 |
| Host organism: |
Mouse (Mus musculus) |
| Species reactivity: |
Dog, Due to limited knowledge and inability for testing each and every species, It does not react with cow, Monkey, Mouse (Mus musculus), Pig, and Rat (Rattus norvegicus), cat, the reactivity of the antibody may extend to other species which are not listed hereby, Human (Homo sapiens) |
| Specificity and cross-reactivity: |
AFP is normally synthesized in the liver, Antibody to AFP has been shown to be useful in detecting hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and germ cell neoplasms, Since it is not possible to test each and every species our knowledge on the corss reactivity of the antibodies is limited, This MAb is highly specific to AFP and shows no cross-reaction with other oncofetal antigens or serum albumin, This particular antibody might cross react with speacies outside of the listed ones, and yolk sac of the fetus, especially yolk sac tumors, intestinal tract, which is identified as alpha fetoprotein (AFP), It recognizes an oncofetal glycoprotein with a single chain of 70kDa |
| Storage and shipping: |
Antibody is stable for 24 months, Temperature variations in the range of 1 to 7 degrees Celsius are tolerable, We recommend NOT to freeze the antibody, Store the antibody at +4C |
| Tested applications:: |
Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistology (IH), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA) |
