Product Overview
Clone: M2-9E3
MART-1 (Melanoma Antigen Recognized by T-cells 1), also known as Melan-A, is a melanocyte differentiation antigen consistently expressed in normal melanocytes and the majority of melanomas. It serves as a critical immunohistochemical marker in the diagnosis and classification of melanocytic lesions. The Clone M2-9E3 is a mouse monoclonal antibody provided as a concentrate, specifically developed for use on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. This antibody offers strong and specific cytoplasmic staining of melanocytic cells, making it a valuable tool in identifying primary and metastatic melanoma. Its high sensitivity and specificity make it especially useful in differentiating melanocytic tumors from non-melanocytic neoplasms in diagnostic pathology.
