Storage Conditions

This antibody is stable for at least one (1) year at -20°C. Avoid multiple freeze- thaw cycles.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes human MUC12 (Mucin 12), a novel mucin that appears to be involved in epithelial cell growth regulation. MUC12 is down-regulated in colorectal cancers.
