Long name
Polyclonal Antibody to Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule (MCAM)
Form/Appearance
Supplied as solution form in PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.02% NaN3,50% glycerol.
Reacts with
Due to limitted amount of tested species we cannot guarantee that no crossreactivity will occur.
Applications
Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) - Formalin/Paraffin, ELISA, EIA, IFA, ELI-Spot, Western Blot (WB)
Properties
If you buy Antibodies supplied by MBS Polyclonals they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.
Specificity
The antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against MCAM. It has been selected for its ability to recognize MCAM in immunohistochemical staining andwestern blotting. ;This is an antibody designed to detect Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule (MCAM) ; MCAM
Storage, shipping and handling
The antibody is shipped at +4 degrees Celsius. Upon receving, freeze at -20. For longer periods of time we recommend keeping the vial frozen at -40 or -80. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing as they may denaturate the polypeptide chains of the antibody. Due to transportation or handling reasons, small amounts of the antibody might get caught on the lid or walls of the vial. We recommend you to briefly cetrifuge the vial prior to use to gather the content on the bottom.
Other names
Melanoma cell adhesion molecule; Cell surface glycoprotein MUC18; cell surface glycoprotein MUC18; Gicerin; melanoma adhesion molecule; cell surface glycoprotein P1H12; melanoma-associated antigen A32; melanoma-associated antigen MUC18; S-endo 1 endothelial-associated antigen; melanoma cell adhesion molecule; Cell surface glycoprotein P1H12; Melanoma cell adhesion molecule; Melanoma-associated antigen A32; Melanoma-associated antigen MUC18; S-endo 1 endothelial-associated antigen
Description
cell adhesion molecules play a role in cell growth and activation and are often identified by WB or ELISA as in the Anti-Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule (MCAM).This antibody needs to be stored at + 4°C in a fridge short term in a concentrated dilution. Freeze thaw will destroy a percentage in every cycle and should be avoided.Antibody for research use.For cells, cell lines and tissues in culture till half confluency.Whole adhesion and interacting molecules are present in lysates used as reference for ELISA quantification of these molecules and their subunits.
