Key Applications Frozen Sections
Immunoblotting (Western Blotting)
Immunofluorescence
Paraffin Sections
Application NotesFrozen sections (1-5 µg/ml)
Immunoblotting (1-5 µg/ml)
Immunofluorescence (1-5 µg/ml, indirect)
Paraffin sections (1-5 µg/ml)
Application CommentsDoes not cross-react with closely related intermediate filament proteins including desmin and GFA (see application references). This antibody stains intermediate filaments found in chondrocytes, fibroblasts, and connective tissue cells, as well as those found in fibroblast-derived cell lines (such as human WI38) and in certain classes of human tumors, including malignant melanomas (see application references). Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

DescriptionPurified mouse monoclonal antibody generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with the specified immunogen and fusing splenocytes with PAI mouse myeloma cells. Recognizes the ~58 kDa vimentin protein.
BackgroundIntermediate (10 nm) filaments are present in, and provide information concerning the origin of most vertebrate cells. At present, five major cell types can be distinguished by their intermediate filament components. These include epithelial cells (cytokeratins), neurons (neurofilaments), glial cells (GFA), skeletal, visceral and certain vascular smooth muscle cells (desmin) and various nonepithelial cells, including cells of mesenchymal origin (vimentin). A few well-defined cell types coexpress vimentin along with one other intermediate filament type. Vimentin (Ab-1) stains the vimentin subclass of intermediate filaments in human tissues.
