Mucins are high molecular weight glycoproteins produced by epithelial cells and can be divided into two families; secretory mucins and membrane bound mucins. MUC5AC is a mucus-forming secreted mucin that is found in normal gastric and tracheo-bronchial mucosa, but absent from normal colon.

Immunofluorescence: 1 - 2 µg/ml Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 1 - 2 µg/ml for 30 min at RT (1) Prediluted format: incubate for 30 min at RT (2) Titering of the MUC5AC antibody may be required for optimal performance.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10 mM Citrate buffer, pH 6,0, for 10 - 20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimised for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
