Description: CD31 is useful as a marker for tumor angiogenesis as it stains blood vessels. It is also a more sensitive marker than CD34, UEA-1 and von Willebrand factor for malignant vascular endothelium. This monoclonal antibody (clone 1A10) reacts with CD31. Immunogen source: Recombinant fusion protein representing a portion of the extracellular domain of CD31. The CD31 clone 1A10 is optimized for use on formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues.
