Scientific Background
Anti-Centromere Antibodies (derived from human CREST patient serum) are useful as controls in ANA diagnostics and also react with other species including mouse, rat, and hamster.
Format: Antisera
Concentration: Lot dependent
Clonality: Polyclonal
Applications: ICC, IHC
Host Species: Human
Species Reactivity: Hamster, Human, Mouse, Rat
Antibody Registry ID: AB_2939058
Physical State: Liquid
Dilution Ranges:
IHC: 1:100
ICC: 1:100
Conjugate: Unconjugated
Quality Control:
Serum obtained from an autoimmune patient was tested at a series of dilutions by immunocytochemistry on ethanol-fixed Hep2 cells that were in log-phase growth. The staining pattern obtained was consistent with the pattern expected for anti-centromere staining.
Usage Statement:
These antibodies are to be used as research laboratory reagents and are not for use as diagnostic or therapeutic reagents in humans.
