Description: Anti Vimentin Mouse Monoclonal Antibody
Background: Vimentin is an intermediate filament protein found in various non-epithelial cells, especially in mesenchymal cells. It is often used as a marker of mesenchymally-derived cells or cells undergoing an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) during both normal development and metastatic progression.
Immunogen: A synthetic peptide from the internal region of human vimentin protein.
Species Reactivity: Anti vimentin antibody recognizes vimentin of vertebrates.
Storage Conditions: Store at -20°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycles

Western blot:
Western blot analysis of recombinant vimentin protein. Purified His-tagged vimentin protein (Cat.#10190) was blotted with anti vimentin monoclonal antibody (Cat.# 26054).
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human renal cancer tissue
with anti-vimentin monoclonal antibody (Cat. #26054). Tissue samples were fixed
with formaldehyde and blocked with 1% serum for 15 min at 37 °C. Antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in citrate buffer (pH6). Samples were then incubated with primary antibody (1:100 dilution) overnight at 4°C.A HRP-conjugated Goat anti-mouse IgG (1:50 dilution) was used as secondary antibody
