Recombinant CGA antibody (AA 1-100)

Catalog No. ABIN7126206

Product Details anti-CGA Antibody

Target: CGA (Glycoprotein Hormones, alpha Polypeptide (CGA))

Antibody Type: Recombinant Antibody

Binding Specificity: AA 1-100

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CGA antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Specificity: Human chorionic gonadotropin antibody (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone synthesized in syncytiotrophoblastic cells of placenta and in certain trophoblastic tumors. The hormone-specific alpha chains have molecular weights of 13 kDa. HCG is found in moles and choriocarcinoma, chorionic components of germ cell tumors, and syncytiotrophoblast like cells in seminoma/dysgerminoma and embryonal carcinoma. In diagnostic pathology, hCG is a useful marker for classification of germ cell tumors, identification of extragonadal germ cell tumors.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human.

Purification: 1.0mg/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues within aa1-100 of hCG was used as an immunogen

Isotype: IgG
