Anti-Cytokeratin Cocktail Antibody (BSA and Azide free)

Cytokeratins are intermediate filament keratins found in the intracytoplasmic cytoskeleton of epithelial tissue. There are two types of Cytokeratins: the low weight, acidic type I cytokeratins and the high weight, basic or neutral type II. Cytokeratins are usually found in pairs comprising a type I Cytokeratin and a type II cytokeratin. The high molecular weight cytokeratins, which are the basic or neutral cytokeratins, comprise subtypes CK1 (67), CK2 (65.5), CK3 (64), CK4 (59), CK5 (58), CK6 (56), CK7 (54), CK8 (52.5) and CK9. The low molecular weight cytokeratins, which are the acidic cytokeratins, comprise subtypes CK10 (56.5), CK12 (56), CK13 (53), CK14 (50), CK16 (48), CK17 (46), CK18 (45), CK19 (48) and CK20 (46) . This antibody recognizes cytokeratins CK1 (67), CK2 (65.5), CK3 (64), CK4 (59) CK5 (58), CK6 (56), CK8 (52.5), CK10 (56.5), CK13 (54) CK14 (50), CK15 (50), CK16 (48), CK18 (45), CK 19 (40)

Our Anti-Cytokeratins 1-6, 8, 10, 13-16, 18, 19 mouse monoclonal primary antibody from Antibodies Incorporated is produced in-house from hybridoma clone Multiple clones. It detects human Cytokeratins 1-6, 8, 10, 13-16, 18, 19, and is purified by protein a chromatography. It is great for use in WB, IHC, ICC, ELISA.

Aliquot and store at ≤ -20°C for long term storage. For short term storage, store at 2-8°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the vial prior to removing the cap.

Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma line followed by Protein A affinity chromatography and buffer exchanged into 1X PBS. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody.

Each new lot of this antibody is tested to confirm that it recognizes a single immunoreactive band of expected molecular weight when used in Western blot.
