• Biological Significance: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion. It is normally produced during fetal development, but the production of CEA stops before birth. Therefore, it is not usually present in the blood of healthy adults, although levels are raised in heavy smokers. CEA is a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI)-cell surface anchored glycoprotein whose specialized sialofucosylated glycoforms serve as functional colon carcinoma L-selectin and E-selectin ligands, which may be critical to the metastatic dissemination of colon carcinoma cells.
• Biohazard Information: This product contains sodium azide as preservative. Although the amount of sodium azide is very small appropriate care must be taken when handling this product.
• Usage Recommendations: This highly purified product can be used as an immunogen or for labeling and standards, calibrators but is primarily used for multiple analyte controls.
• Preparation and Storage: Store at 4°C for short term storage. Store at -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
