Anti-Lewis A [PR 5C5]

7

This antibody recognises human Lewis A antigen, and cross-reacts weakly with Galalpha1-4Gal and rhamnose.

This antibody recognises human Lewis A antigen, and has been employed in the immunohistochemical diagnosis of colon disorders, including bowel, small intestine, stomach and colorectal cancers. It has been used in indirect immunoperoxidase staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded samples of normal colorectal epithelial cells and colon carcinomas (Richman & Bodmer, 1987). It has also been used in indirect immunofluorescence examination of frozen sections of colorectal tissue (Richman & Bodmer, 1987). Its specificity has been confirmed in ELISA analysis (Manimala et al, 2007).
