Source
A mouse was immunized with callus cytokeratins isolated from fresh human skin tissue. Antibody producing cells were isolated - after fusing the spleen cells of this mouse with murine myeloma cells by selecting the cells that produced antibody capable of staining human epithelia in thin sections.

Specification:
The antibody does stain all types of keratin containing (that is epithelial) cells in frozen sections of various tissues, with the exception of myo-epithelial cells and the podocytes of the glomeruli.
