Related Product Information for anti-BCA-225 antibody
This antibody recognizes a human Breast Carcinoma-associated glycoprotein, BCA-225 (220-225 kDa). This protein diff ers in size and distribution from other Breast Carcinoma antigens. Unlike other carcinoma antibodies against Breast Carcinoma antigens, this antibody does not react with benign or malignant colonic tissues. Since this antigen is localized in malignancies of Breast Carcinomas and Carcinoma of the Uterine Cervix, it can be eff ectively used to identify metastatic Breast Carcinoma lesions. Strong intracytoplasmic staining is seen in primary and metastatic Breast Carcinoma tissue, as well as in Cervical Carcinomas. Apical staining is seen in normal kidney, lung, Fallopian tube, liver, skin (eccrine sweat glands) and uterus. Similar staining patterns are observed in lung, ovarian, and endometrial cancers. Carcino-mas of the colon, stomach, prostate, urinary bladder, liver, pancreas, thyroid, and parotid are negative, as are Sarcomas and Lymphoid Cancers.

Product Notes
The BCA-225 (Catalog #AAA59170) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The BCA-225 reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's BCA-225 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the BCA-225 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "BCA-225, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
