Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years. Abcam is leading the way in addressing the problem with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation.
One factor contributing to the crisis is the use of antibodies that are not suitable. This can lead to misleading results and the use of incorrect data informing project assumptions and direction. To help address this challenge, we have introduced an application and species grid on our primary antibody datasheets to make it easy to simplify identification of the right antibody for your needs.

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.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179467).

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.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179467).

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.This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179467).
Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

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 AlexaFluor®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 AlexaFluor®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.This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179467).

Actin was immunoprecipitated from 1mg of NIH/3T3 (Mouse embyro fibroblast cells) whole cell extract with ab179467 at 1/40 dilution. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab179467 at 1/1000 dilution. Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated was used as secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution. Lane 1: NIH/3T3 whole cell extract. Lane 2: PBS instead of NIH/3T3 whole cell extract.
