The hCG-beta Monoclonal Antibody [Clone HCGb/459] is a mouse IgG1 antibody specifically developed to recognize the beta subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG-β). The beta subunit is unique to hCG and is not shared with other pituitary hormones, making this antibody a highly specific tool for identifying pregnancy-related tissues and hCG-producing tumors. Validated for use in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens, Clone HCGb/459 is ideal for applications in diagnostic histopathology, particularly in detecting choriocarcinoma, hydatidiform mole, and certain germ cell tumors.
