Anti-Cytokeratin 18 Antibody

Manufactured by Antibodies.com, this affinity-purified polyclonal reagent is raised in rabbit against a synthetic peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human Cytokeratin 18, allowing selective detection of endogenous CK18 protein across a wide range of sample types. The unconjugated antibody is supplied at 1 mg/mL as a 50 µL liquid formulation in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide, and is validated for ELISA, Western blot (WB), immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence (ICC/IF) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) workflows. Reactivity has been confirmed in Human, Mouse and Rat samples, making it a versatile option for cross-species studies of epithelial markers, cytoskeletal organisation and apoptosis research where Cytokeratin 18 cleavage fragments are of interest. Each lot is affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity chromatography using the epitope-specific immunogen, supporting low background and consistent specificity across applications. For optimal stability, vials shipped at 4 °C should be aliquoted on arrival and stored at –20 °C, with repeated freeze/thaw cycles avoided to preserve binding performance. Provided as a research-use-only reagent by Antibodies.com, this polyclonal antibody is intended for laboratory applications in cell biology, pathology and biomarker investigation.
