Product Overview
Clone: M2-7C10
MART-1 (Melanoma Antigen Recognized by T-cells 1), also known as Melan-A, is a melanocyte differentiation antigen commonly expressed in normal melanocytes and the majority of melanoma cells. It plays an important role in the identification and diagnosis of melanocytic lesions, including malignant melanoma. The Clone M2-7C10 is a mouse monoclonal antibody available as a concentrate, specifically designed for use in immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues. This antibody provides strong and specific staining of melanocytic cells, making it a reliable marker for distinguishing melanomas from other non-melanocytic tumors. Its application is crucial in diagnostic pathology for confirming melanocytic origin and aiding in the accurate classification of pigmented lesions.
