| Product Name | Anti-PSA (KLK3) (Hu) from Mouse (HAM18) |
|---|---|
| Description |
HAM18 has been developed for detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in routine formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded prostate tissue specimen to be used in brightfield immunohistochemistry but also for multicolor immunofluorescence. HAM18 has been tested for sensitivity, specificity and prognostic significance on more than 20.000 tissues. Accordingly, HAM18 stands for be- ing the best validated anti-PSA clone. For details review www.PSA-antibody.com. Prostate Cancer is the most common cancer in men and PSA is the most important target for management of patients diag- nosed with prostate cancer. PSA is a protease exclusively produced in prostate epithelial cells and secreted into the seminal flu- id. Moreover, PSA reaches the blood stream and PSA levels have been shown to be proportional to quantity of prostate epitheli- al cells. Therefore serum analysis has developed the most commonly used method to detect PSA for prostate cancer prevention and to monitor response to therapy. Moreover, PSA immunohistochemistry is an important and common method for routine pathological diagnosis since it allows analysis of cellular expression profiles in prostate cancer. In diagnostic routine, PSA (HAM18) immunohistochemistry can be used in the following applications
