Title:
ANTIBODY AGAINST HUMAN KGF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2001/079265
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A polyclonal antibody specifically binding to human keratinocyte growth factor (KGF). Because of having a high specificity to KGF, this antibody makes it possible to accurately and quickly detect and determine KGF in various organs, tissues and cells. Thus, it is usable in detecting and immunoassaying various tumors such as pearl tumor.
