The mouse monoclonal antibody AFP-01 reacts with human alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP), a 70 kDa oncofetal antigen. AFP is a major fetal plasma protein, but is not present in healthy adult tissues. Elevated AFP concentrations in adult plasma may be an early marker of hepatocellular carcinoma or teratoblastoma, while high concentrations in amniotic fluid may indicate severe congenital defects of a fetus.

ELISA: The antibody AFP-01 has been tested as the detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA for analysis of human alpha-fetoprotein in combination with antibody AFP-11 (cat. no. 11-384-C100) .
