Anti-Melanoma (MCSP)
Description The Anti-Melanoma (MCSP) antibody recognizes the melanoma-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (MCSP) antigen, also known as high molecular weight melanoma-associated antigen. MCSP is expressed on the majority (>90%) of human melanoma tissues and melanoma cell lines but not on carcinoma cells, fibroblastoid cells, and cells of hematopoietic origin. Applications The monoclonal Anti-Melanoma (MCSP) antibody is suitable for direct immunofluorescent staining of melanoma cells. Stained cells can be analyzed by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy. This antibody is suitable for MACS® Control applications. For further details, please refer to the data sheet of the separation reagent. Clone Isotype EP-1 Mouse IgG1		Figure 1 Human peripheral blood leukocytes mixed with cells from a melanoma cell line (SK-Mel-28) were stained using Anti-Melanoma (MCSP)-PE (A) or Anti-Melanoma (MCSP)-APC (B) and analyzed by flow cytometry.
