Product Overview
Clone: OV-TL12-30
CK7, Clone OV-TL12/30 is a monoclonal antibody specifically designed to detect Cytokeratin 7, an intermediate filament protein expressed in the simple epithelia lining the glandular and transitional tissues. Clone OV-TL12/30 provides strong and specific cytoplasmic staining in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, making it a widely used marker in immunohistochemistry for identifying epithelial origin and differentiation. CK7 is commonly expressed in various carcinomas, including those of the lung, breast, ovary, and urinary tract, and its detection helps distinguish these tumors from CK7-negative malignancies. Clone OV-TL12/30 is particularly valuable in diagnostic pathology for tumor classification, aiding in the differentiation of primary versus metastatic lesions. The antibody’s reliable staining pattern and high specificity make it an essential tool in both clinical diagnostics and research applications.
