Vimentin is a specific marker of normal mesenchymal cells and tumors from which they originate. This antibody is mainly used for the diagnosis of malignant tumors derived from mesenchymal tumors such as myogenic tumors, soft tissue tumors and bone tumors. It is of great significance in the differential diagnosis of tumors and sarcomas, malignant melanoma and poorly differentiated carcinomas, undifferentiated carcinomas and lymphomas.
