Antigen Preparation
The cell membrane preparation from human malignant melanoma SK-MEL-28.
Background
"The anti Melanoma (MCSP) antibody recognize human melanoma by immunofluorescent or FACS. It also called Melanoma associated chondriotin sulfate proteoglycan (MCSP) antigen, which is known as high-molecular weight melanoma associated antigen. Anti Melanoma antibody can be used to activate serum complement and induce antibody dependent cellular cytoxicity. The monoclonal antibodies have been used in the therapy of cancers particularly melanoma."
