CYTOKERATIN ANTIBODIES
(anti-Human and others as indicated)
RDI Division of Fitzgerald Industries Intl offers a wide line of antibodies. Since no one antibody works best for all applications (neutralization, blotting, ELISA, etc), we offer many different types of antibodies to help solve this problem. Please inquire for other applications or types of antibodies not listed below.
ANTI-CYTOKERATIN 17
Mab to Cytokeratin 17
cat#RDI-PRO61036, new cat#: 10R-C160a $412.50/vial

Polypeptide Reacting Mr 46 000 polypeptide (human cytokeratin 17)
Antigen Recognized in Species tested so far: Human, rat (Mr 46 000 polypeptide)
Reactivities on Cultured Cell lines tested so far: HeLa, A-431
Tumors Specifically Detected Benign tumors of mammary gland; most malignant forms
of mammary tumors are negative for cytokeratin 17
Working Dilution When reconstituted with 1ml distilled water, dilute further 1:10 Incubation Time 1h at RT
