General notes
Mouse, Rat: We have preliminary internal testing data to indicate this antibody may not react with these species. Please contact us for more information.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free production
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.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-ATF2 antibody [E242] (ab32061)
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human lung cancer tissue labeling ATF2 with ab32061 at 1/100 dilution (2.55 µg/mL). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9 (epitope retrieval solution 2). Positive staining on lung cancer. The section was incubated with ab32061 for 30 mins at room temperature. The immunostaining staining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument and visualised using ab209101, Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB. Negative control using PBS instead of primary antibody. Counterstained with hematoxylin.
