ab24610 staining Acetylated alpha Tubulin in monkey kidney cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with 3% PFA + 0.1% GA and blocked with 3% BSA + 0.5% Triton X-100 for 45 minutes at 25°C. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100 in 3% BSA + 0.5% Triton X-100) for 1 hour at 21°C. An Alexa Fluor^® 647-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal (2 µg/ml) was used as the secondary antibody.

ICC/IF image of ab24610 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab24610, 1µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Image-iT™ FX Signal Enhancer was used as the primary blocking agent, 5% BSA (in TBS-T) was used for all other blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). Alexa Fluor^® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red).

ICC/IF image of ab24610 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab24610, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG - H&L, pre-adsorbed (ab96879) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor^® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with ab24610 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab24610, 1µg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. (This data was generated from a purified version of the antibody. Some lots are produced as ascites fluid. We suggest 1µl/1x10⁶ cells for ascites preparations). The secondary antibody used was DyLight^® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2b [PLPV219] (ab91366, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HeLa cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.
