Background Information
Keratins are a large family of proteins that form the intermediate filament cytoskeleton of epithelial cells, which are classified into two major sequence types. Type I keratins are a group of acidic intermediate filament proteins, including K9-K23, and the hair keratins Ha1-Ha8. Type II keratins are the basic or neutral courterparts to the acidic type I keratins, including K1-K8, and the hair keratins, Hb1-Hb6. KRT8 is often paired with keratin 18 in vivo. This antibody is specifically against KRT8.

Reviews
What customers say
All three reviews rate this antibody 5 stars. Users report strong performance across multiple applications: effective IHC staining on human lung cancer tissue at 1:1000 with DAB and pH 9 TE buffer, excellent IF on FFPE prostate tissue at 1:50 with Tris-EDTA retrieval, and a clear Western blot band at the expected molecular weight in MDCK GII cells at 1:1000. Overall, reviewers describe the antibody as reliable and highly recommended for its target.
The reviews below have been submitted by verified Proteintech customers who received an incentive for providing their feedback.
Nikolett (Verified Customer) (03-31-2026) | Antibody works well on human lung cancer patient-derived tissue as 1:1000 for DAB IHC staining under pH9 TE buffer conditions. I highly recommend it.
|
Emma (Verified Customer) (11-29-2021) | Works very well by IF on FFPE tissue. Used at 1:50 with a Tris-EDTA antigen retrieval.
 |
Joleen (Verified Customer) (06-12-2019) | This antibody recognizes a band that matched with the expected molecular weight of KRT8.
