| AMH is expressed post-natally by immature Sertoli cells, and to a lesser degree by granulosa cells. AMH plays a role in testicular differentiation and in the regulation of ovarian follicle growth. AMH is a member of the TGF beta superfamily. It is secreted as a homodimeric 140kD disulfide linked precursor that is cleaved to release the mature 30kD homodimer. |

| Catalog # | C9097-09D |
| Applications | Suitable for use in Immunohistochemistry (frozen, paraffin). Other applications not tested. |
| Recommended Dilution | Immunohistochemistry: 1:50, requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment methods prior to staining of paraffin sections. Sodium Citrate buffer pH6.0 is recommended for this purpose. |
| Hybridoma | Spleen cells from immunized mice were fused with cells of the mouse SP2/0-Ag14 myeloma cell line. |
| Recommended Positive Control Tissue | Human normal skin |
| Recommended Secondary Reagents | F(ab')2 rabbit anti mouse IgG:HRP |
| Recommended Negative Controls | Mouse IgG1 for use in human studies. |
| Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 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. |
