Cytokeratin 19 Antibody (FITC)

SKU: orb154471

Description

Mouse monoclonal antibody conjugated to FITC which recognizes Cytokeratin 19 that belongs to the intermediate filament family. It expressed in a defined zone of basal keratinocytes in the deep outer root sheath of hair follicles. It involved in the organization of myofibers. Cytokeratin 19 is a specific marker of moderate to severe dysplasia and carcinoma in situ in oral cavity squamous epithelium, and measurement of Cytokeratin 19 may be a useful marker in diagnosing hepatoma.
