Abstract
A panel of monoclonal antibodies produced from human gastrointestinal tumors as immunogen is used to diagnose the presence of colon cancer. The antibody panel subsets the human gastrointestinal tract in its reactivity vis-a-vis esophagus, stomach, small intestine and colon. The panel is useful as a diagnostic probe for cancer.
