About this item
This antibody recognises an oncofetal antigen of 220 kDa, identified as a tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) with properties of a mucin. TAG-72 is usually expressed by adenocarcinomas, but is negative in mesotheliomas. Studies have reported that this antibody has 80% sensitivity and 93% specificity for pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Therefore, TAG-72 is a useful marker to distinguish between mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma. However, false positive reactions can occur so results must be interpreted with the utmost caution. This antibody may be useful in the differentiation of non-small cell carcinomas from small cell carcinomas of the lung. The combined use of TAG-72 antibody with a GCDFP-15 antibody is valuable in the diagnosis of apocrine carcinoma.
Flow Cytometry: 0,5-1 µg/million cells IF: 1 - 2 µg/ml IHC (FFPE): 0,5 - 1 µg/ml for 30 minutes at RT (1) The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the TAG-72 antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.
