Product Overview
| Description | Although histochemical staining of the S100 protein family has been used for many years in the diagnosis of malignant melanoma, recent studies suggest one of the proteins comprising the S100 family, S100b, has particular utility in many aspects of the clinical management of malignant melanoma. This protein has been shown to be of use in staging malignant melanoma, in establishing prognosis, in evaluating treatment success and in predicting relapse. S100b is an independent prognostic factor and pretreatment circulating S100B concentrations predict duration of survival in melanoma patients. Survival is significantly longer in melanoma patients with normal S100b levels compared to those with elevated levels. Applications: Suitable for use as a standard in immunoassays, as an immunogen for antiserum production and tracer for iodination. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. |
