Description: EGP40 is a 40-43kDa transmembrane epithelial glycoprotein, also identified as epithelial specific antigen (ESA), or epithelial cellular adhesion molecule (Ep-CAM). It is expressed on baso-lateral cell surface in most simple epithelia and a vast majority of carcinomas. This antibody has been used to distinguish adenocarcinoma from pleural mesothelioma and hepatocellular carcinoma. This antibody is also useful in distinguishing serous carcinomas of the ovary from mesothelioma.

Immunogen: Neuraminidase treated GLS-1 human small cell lung carcinoma cells were used as the immunogen for this EpCAM antibody. The epitope has been localized to amino acids 27-59.

Storage: Store the EpCAM antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
