• Application Notes: IHC - Paraffin: (10 µg/ml); IHC - Frozen (1:50); Immunohistochemistry: AAA12343 was validated for use in immunohistochemistry on a panel of 21 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human tissues after heat induced antigen retrieval in pH 6.0 citrate buffer. After incubation with the primary antibody, slides were incubated with biotinylated secondary antibody, followed by alkaline phosphatase-streptavidin and chromogen. The stained slides were evaluated by a pathologist to confirm staining specificity. The optimal working concentration for AAA12343 was determined to be 10 ug/ml. Positive control: Breast cancer.; ; (Optimal dilution to be determined by the researcher)

Related Product Information for anti-MET antibody

Met, an HGF Receptor/Met type protein kinase, is a cell-surface proto-oncogene that mediates the biological activities of hepatocyte growth factor. The protein is a disulfide-linked heterodimer comprised of two subunits: a 50 kD extracellular alpha subunit and a membrane-spanning 145 kD beta subunit that binds ligand. Met is an important regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation, organ regeneration, embryogenesis, and tumorogenesis.
