Monoclonal antibody for immunohistochemical staining of the KI-67 protein, e.g. in tumor cells. Proliferation marker. MIB1 can be given as proliferation index: MIB1 positive cells/ 100 tumor cells. The lower the index, the lower the proliferation activity (growth activity) of the tumour tissue. For malignant melanoma, the localization of the Ki-67 protein (junctional area or in the area of the basal sections of the tumor) also plays a diagnostic role.
