(Figure 2. IHC analysis of Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 using anti-Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 antibody (AAA125608).Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human prostatic cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH8. 0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2μg/ml rabbit anti-Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 Antibody (AAA125608) overnight at 4 degree C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37 degree C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) with DAB as the chromogen.)

Related Product Information for anti-KLK3 antibody
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA), also known as gamma-seminoprotein or kallikrein-3 (KLK3), is a glycoprotein enzyme encoded in humans by the KLK3 gene. KLK3 is a member of the kallikrein-related peptidase family and is secreted by the epithelial cells of the prostate gland. This gene is mapped to 19q13. 33. KLK3 is present in small quantities in the serum of men with healthy prostates, but is often elevated in the presence of prostate cancer or other prostate disorders. KLK3 is produced for the ejaculate where it liquifies the semen in the seminal coagulum and allows sperm to swim freely. It is also believed to be instrumental in dissolving the cervical mucous cap, allowing the entry of sperm. It is not a unique indicator of prostate cancer, but may also detect prostatitis or benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Product Notes
The KLK3 klk3 (Catalog #AAA125608) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 Antibody reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (Direct ELISA), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), WB (Western Blot). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KLK3 klk3 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 "Prostate Specific Antigen/KLK3, Polyclonal 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
