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 - Anti-alpha Tubulin (acetyl K40) antibody [EPR16772] - BSA and Azide free (ab209348)
Ab179484 staining alpha Tubulin in NIH/3T3 (mouse embryonic fibroblast) cell line by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% TritonX-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at 1:20000 dilution. An AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti-Rabbit (ab150077) was used as a secondary antibody at 1:1000 dilution. An Anti-Alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594), ab195889 was used as a counterstain at 1:200 dilution. DAPI was used as a nuclear counterstain. Confocal image showing midbody (arrows) staining in NIH/3T3 cells treated with starvation for 48 hours.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179484).

The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% TritonX-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at 1:20000 dilution. An AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti-Rabbit (ab150077) was used as a secondary antibody at 1:1000 dilution. An Anti-Alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594), ab195889 was used as a counterstain at 1:200 dilution. DAPI was used as a nuclear counterstain.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-alpha Tubulin (acetyl K40) antibody [EPR16772] - BSA and Azide free (ab209348)
ab179484 stained in Hela cells. Untreated and Trichostatin A treated (50ug/ml, 4 hours) cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10min) at room temperature and incubated with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% triton for 1h at room temperature to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab179484 at 1/500 dilution overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody was ab150177 used at 1 ug/ml for 1hour at room temperature (colored green). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (colored blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM for 1hour at room temperature.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab179484).

Flow Cytometry - Anti-alpha Tubulin (acetyl K40) antibody [EPR16772] - BSA and Azide free (ab209348)
Flow cytometric analysis of 2% paraformaldehyde-fixed HeLa (Human epithelial cells from cervix adenocarcinoma) cells treated with 500 ng/ml Trichostatin A for 4 hours labeling alpha Tubulin (acetyl K40) with ab179484 at 1/240 dilution (red line). Goat anti rabbit IgG (FITC) at 1/150 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. ab179484 preincubated with 1mg/ml acetyl Alpha tubulin (acetyl K40) peptide (green) or non-acetyl Alpha tubulin (acetyl K40) peptide (orange). The isotype control was Rabbit monoclonal IgG (black) and the unlabelled contol was cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (blue).

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-alpha Tubulin (acetyl K40) antibody [EPR16772] - BSA and Azide free (ab209348)
Alpha Tubulin was immunoprecipitated from 1mg of HeLa cells (Human epithelial cells from cervix adenocarcinoma) treated with 500 ng/ml Trichostatin A for 4 hours with ab179484 at 1/70 dilution. Western blot was performed from 10 µg of the immunoprecipitate using ab179484 at 1/1000 dilution. Anti-Rabbit IgG (HRP), specific to the non-reduced form of IgG, was used as secondary antibody at 1/1500 dilution. Left lane: Hela whole cell extract. Right lane: PBS instead of Hela whole cell extract.
Blocking and dilution buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
