Notes

The staining intensity of this melanoma cocktail is enhanced by performing heat mediated antigen retrieval using a high pH buffer. The HMB-45 portion of this antibody will stain with citrate buffer, pH 6.0; however, data shows the MART-1 portion of this cocktail may be negative unless a high pH buffer is used. We therefore, strongly recommend that you do not use citrate buffer for this antibody cocktail.

Notes

This cocktail is HMB45 + two different clones of MART-1[M2-7C10] + [M2-9E3]. HMB34 isotype: IgG1/kappa and both clones of MART-1: IgG2b + IgG2b

HMB-45 and MART-1 are coexpressed in the majority of melanomas, as well as uniquely expressed in certain cases. Thus, the HMB-45 and MART-1 cocktail is potentially more sensitive than HMB-45 or MART-1 alone. MART-1 is a cocktail of clones M2-7C10 and M2-9E3. The combination of HMB-45 and the MART-1 cocktail make this triple antibody cocktail a first-order pan melanoma screener.

Lot numbers higher than GR313023 will be from tissue culture supernatant. Please note that the dilutions may need to be adjusted accordingly.

Abcam is leading the way to address reproducibility in scientific research with our highly validated recombinant monoclonal and recombinant multiclonal antibodies. Search & select one of Abcam's thousands of recombinant alternatives to eliminate batch-variability and unnecessary animal use.

If you do not find a host species to meet your needs, our catalogue and custom Chimeric range provides scientists the specificity of Abcam's RabMAbs in the species backbone of your choice. Remember to also review our range of edited cell lines, proteins and biochemicals relevant to your target that may help you further your research goals.

Abcam antibodies are extensively validated in a wide range of species and applications, so please check the reagent specifications meet your scientific needs before purchasing. If you have any questions or bespoke requirements, simply visit the Contact Us page to send us an inquiry or contact our Support Team ahead of purchase.

Please note that this antibody is an oligoclonal antibody. It is a cocktail of monoclonal antibodies that have been carefully selected. Oligoclonal antibodies have not only the specificity and batch-to-batch consistency of a monoclonal antibody, but also have the advantage of the sensitivity of a polyclonal antibody due to their ability to recognize multiple epitopes on an antigen.
