Description: Recognizes an oncofetal antigen of 220kDa, identified as a tumor-associated glycoprotein (TAG-72) with properties of a mucin. The majority of human adenocarcinomas including colorectal, pancreatic, gastric, ovarian, endometrial, mammary, and non-small cell lung cancer display some cell populations that are positive for TAG72. About 60% of carcinoma patients express TAG72 in their sera. TAG72 is reportedly useful in distinguishing pulmonary adenocarcinomas from pleural mesotheliomas.
Immunogen: Human CA72.4 protein was used as the immunogen for the TAG-72 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the TAG-72 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
