Description
Recognizes a single protein of 33-34kDa, identified as the prostate specific antigen (PSA) . This mAb is highly specific to PSA and stains prostatic secretory and ductal epithelium in both normal and neoplastic tissues. PSA is a chymotrypsin-like serine protease (kallikrein family) exclusively produced by the prostate epithelium, and abundant in seminal fluid. PSA can be detected in the sera of patients with prostatic carcinoma. It is predominantly complexed to a liver-derived serine protease inhibitor, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) . A higher proportion of serum PSA is complexed to ACT in prostate cancer than in benign prostate hyperplasia. This mAb makes an excellent pair with mAb A67-B/E3 for PSA tests.
UniProt
P07288
Reactivity

Immunogen
PSA (p30) from human sperm plasma was used as the immunogen for the Prostate Specific Antigen antibody.
Clonality
Monoclonal
Clone
1A7 or 1A7G6B6
Conjugation
Unconjugated
Field of Research
Immunology & Inflammation
Purification
Protein G affinity chromatography
Dilution
Flow cytometry: 0.5-1ug/10^6 cells, Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1ug/ml, Immunohistochemistry (FFPE) : 0.5-1ug/ml for 30 min at RT
Storage Conditions
Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Notes
For research use only.
Applications Notes
Optimal dilution of the Prostate Specific Antigen antibody should be determined by the researcher.1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Preservative
0.2 mg/ml in 1X PBS with 0.1 mg/ml rAlbumin and 0.05% sodium azide
