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.

ab32572 staining in CTNNB1 (beta Catenin) wild-type HAP1 cells (top panel) and in CTNNB1 (β-catenin) knockout HAP1 cells (bottom panel). The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab32572 at 1/250 dilution and ab195889 at 1/250 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red) overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed (ab150081) secondary antibody at 2 μg/ml (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labeled in blue with DAPI.

Different expression level of beta Catenin in Human HCTs (hepatocellular carcinoma tissues) and PLTs (para-cancerous liver tissues).
The HCTs, PLTs were paraffin-embedded and cut into sections with 5 μm-thickness for hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. ab32572 was used at a dilution of 1:400. The second antibody was a biotinylated IgG to incubate 40 minutes at 37°C. Finally, the tissue slices were visualized by the 3, 3-diaminobenzidine solution and counterstained with hematoxylin. Substitution of the primary antibody with phosphate-buffered saline was served as a control for IHC.
The beta Catenin with negative, weak, moderate and strong staining activity was respectively detected in HCTs (E-H) and PLTs (M-P). Section E shown above, for full image please see original paper.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab32572).

ab32572 was shown to specifically react with CTNNB1 (β-catenin) in wild type HAP1 cells. No band was observed when CTNNB1 (β-catenin) knockout samples were used. Wild-type and CTNNB1 (β-catenin) knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab32572 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1/5000 dilution and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

This data was developed using the same antibody in a different buffer formulation (ab32572).
Chromatin was prepared from HCT 116 cells according to the Abcam Dual-X-ChIP protocol*. Cells were fixed with 1.5 mM EGS for 30 mins and then formaldehyde for 10 min.
The ChIP was performed with 25 µg of chromatin, 5 µg of ab32572 (red), or 5 µg of rabbit normal IgG ab172730 (gray) and 20 µl of Protein A/G sepharose beads. The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by real time PCR (Taqman approach for active and inactive loci, Sybr green approach for heterochromatic loci)
