Recommended Dilution |
1:100-1:200 |
Note :
IHC-P
Manual staining : Heat-induced antigen retrieval for 5 minutes in an autoclave at 121ºC in pH 7.8 Tris-EDTA-based Target Retrieval Solution buffer.
This antibody has been validated by Autostainer including Agilent/Dako - Autostainer Link 48, Bond RX-Lecia, and Roche-Ventana Discovery ULTRA. The detailed steps by Autostainer please refer to the protocol.

Not tested in other applications.
Calculated MW
Positive Control
Prostate: The epithelial cells of the prostate glands must show a strong cytoplasmic staining. Due to leakage of the antigen in the vicinity of the prostate glands, adjacent stroma cells may display a weak to moderate staining reaction.
Negative Control
Colon: PSA immunostaining should be absent in all cells.

Background
Kallikreins are a subgroup of serine proteases having diverse physiological functions. Growing evidence suggests that many kallikreins are implicated in carcinogenesis and some have potential as novel cancer and other disease biomarkers. This gene is one of the fifteen kallikrein subfamily members located in a cluster on chromosome 19. Its protein product is a protease present in seminal plasma. It is thought to function normally in the liquefaction of seminal coagulum, presumably by hydrolysis of the high molecular mass seminal vesicle protein. Serum level of this protein, called PSA in the clinical setting, is useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of prostatic carcinoma. Alternate splicing of this gene generates several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
