The CK17 (Cytokeratin-17) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody, Clone EP98 is a highly specific and sensitive antibody designed for the detection of Cytokeratin-17, a type I intermediate filament protein expressed predominantly in basal epithelial cells and certain carcinomas. This antibody is widely used in immunohistochemistry (IHC) on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections, making it an essential tool in both clinical diagnostics and cancer research. Clone EP98 targets a conserved epitope of CK17, ensuring strong and specific cytoplasmic staining with minimal background. It is particularly valuable in the identification and differentiation of squamous cell carcinomas, basal-like breast cancers, and various epithelial tumors. The antibody’s robust performance supports pathologists and researchers in accurate tumor classification and prognosis evaluation. Validated for use in automated and manual IHC staining protocols, this antibody is compatible with a wide range of detection systems. It is supplied in both concentrated and ready-to-use formulations, offering flexibility for diverse laboratory workflows. With proven reliability and lot-to-lot consistency, the CK17 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody Clone EP98 is a trusted reagent for advancing studies in epithelial biology, tumor pathology, and biomarker discovery. Key Features: Clone: EP98 Host: Rabbit Monoclonal Target Protein: Cytokeratin-17 (CK17) Applications: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on FFPE tissues Localization: Cytoplasmic Species Reactivity: Human Use Cases: Squamous cell carcinoma, basal-like breast cancer, epithelial tumor diagnostics Formulations: Concentrated and ready-to-use Compatibility: Suitable for manual and automated staining platforms Quality: Validated for high specificity and minimal background This CK17 antibody provides precise and reproducible staining essential for diagnostic pathology and oncology research, making it an indispensable tool for clinical laboratories and academic institutions.
