Anti-Cancer Antigen 125 (CA 125) Antibody

Supplied by Antibodies.com as a Primary Antibody, this purified mouse monoclonal reagent targets Cancer Antigen 125 (MUC16), the well-established ovarian carcinoma marker, and is raised against CA125 antigen purified from human ovarian carcinoma. The clone, designated X325, is of the IgG1 isotype and is provided as a liquid preparation at 1 mg/ml, unconjugated and purified by ion exchange chromatography of ascites. It is validated for ELISA, Western Blotting (WB), and Immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded tissue (IHC-P), and reacts with human CA125 / MUC16, making it a reliable choice for studies of ovarian cancer-related tumor markers and mucin-16 biology. For routine storage the antibody should be kept refrigerated for short-term use; for long-term stability, aliquot and store at –20 °C, avoiding repeated freeze/thaw cycles to preserve binding activity. Researchers working on epithelial ovarian neoplasms and other CA125-expressing tissues will find this Antibodies.com reagent a versatile, well-characterized tool for both quantitative immunoassay and tissue-based detection workflows.
