Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded Human prostate hyperplasia tissue labeling Actin with ab179467 at 1/1000 dilution, followed by prediluted HRP Polymer for Rabbit/Mouse IgG. Cytoplasm staining on smooth muscle cells is observed. Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Negative control: Using PBS instead of primary ab, secondary ab is prediluted HRP Polymer for Rabbit/Mouse IgG.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of NIH/3T3 (Mouse embryonic fibroblast) cells labeling Actin with Purified ab179467 at 1:100 dilution (6.98 µg/ml). Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Cells were counterstained with Ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) 1:200 (2.5 µg/ml). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1:1000 dilution (2 µg/ml) dilution. DAPI nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.

Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized NIH/3T3 (Mouse embyro fibroblast cells) cells labeling Actin with ab179467 at 1/50 dilution, followed by Goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488 (IgG) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/200 dilution (green). Cytoplasm staining on NIH/3T3 cell line is observed. The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with ab7291 (anti-Tubulin mouse mAb) at 1/500 dilution and ab150120 (goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor® 594 secondary) at 1/500 dilution (red).
The negative controls are as follows;
1. ab179467 at 1/50 dilution followed by ab150120 (goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor® 594 secondary) at 1/500 dilution.
2. ab7291 (anti-Tubulin mouse mAb) at 1/500 dilution followed by ab150077 (goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488 (IgG H&L) at 1/200 dilution. -
Flow Cytometry analysis of HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma) cells labelling Actin with purified ab179467 at 1/70 (red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% methanol. An Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/2000) was used as the secondary antibody. Black - Isotype control, rabbit monoclonal IgG. Blue - Unlabelled control, cells without incubation with primary and secondary antibodies.
