Anti-Cytokeratin 84 Antibody

Cytokeratin 84 (KRT84) is a type II keratin expressed in the hard keratinizing epithelium of hair shafts, nail beds, and related epidermal appendages. This polyclonal reagent from Antibodies.com is raised in rabbit and supplied unconjugated for western blot detection of the target across human, mouse, and rat samples.

Format: 100 µl of antibody at 1 mg/ml in PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. The glycerol cryoprotectant and small working volume support convenient storage at -20 °C, and the antibody retains activity through several freeze-thaw cycles when handled in pre-aliquoted working volumes.

Typical use cases include western blot analysis of protein lysates prepared from skin, hair follicle, or cultured keratinocytes, where KRT84 expression is profiled alongside other hair and epithelial keratins. The polyclonal format provides multi-epitope recognition, which can be useful when a single monoclonal reagent fails to detect the target in a particular lysate preparation.

Ships refrigerated; protect from light. Store aliquots at -20 °C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw of the working stock.
