Cat#:PA-1606F;Product Name:Rabbit Anti-Kallikrein-Related Peptidase 3 Antibody;Synonym:KLK3; kallikrein-related peptidase 3; APS; PSA; hK3; KLK2A1; prostate-specific antigen; seminin; P-30 antigen; kallikrein-3; semenogelase; gamma-seminoprotein; EC 3.4.21.77; kallikrein 3, (prostate specific antigen);Background:PSA is a chymotrypsin-like serine protease (kallikrein family) produced by the prostate epithelium. PSA is used to confirm prostatic acinar cell origin in primary and metastatic carcinomas and to rule out non-prostatic carcinoma mimics. Clone EP1588Y was tested on 167 cases of prostate for specificity and sensitivity and stained 98% of all prostate cancers, (Table). It was found to be slightly more sensitive than a mouse monoclonal PSA [clone ER-PR8]. This antibody is to be used for paraffin-embedded tissue only and is not to be used in serum testing.;Description:Rabbit Anti-Kallikrein-Related Peptidase 3 Monoclonal Antibody;Host Species:Rabbit;Species Reactivity:Human;Clone#:EP1589Z;Isotype:IgG;Application:IHC;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and freeze at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles;Usage:For Lab Research Use Only;
