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  1, 10 & 11 (clone K8.60)
Mab to Cytokeratin 1, 10/11

Cat#RDI-PRO61808     $438.00

Clone Determination        K8.60

Category                          Mouse monoclonal

Immunoglobulin Class     IgG1

Purification                     Ascites fluid

Antigen                           Bovine epidermal keratins

Specificity                      K8.60 represents a marker for cornification, which may indicate stage and degree of squamous CA differentiation.The antibody mainly reacts with cytokeratins 10 and 11, low reactivity is obtained with cytokeratin 1. K8.60 stains suprabasal layers of epidermis as well as individual cells in other squamous epithelia.
