IHC image of Cathepsin D staining in a section of frozen normal human liver performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol. The section was fixed in 10% paraformaldehyde (10 min) prior to staining. The section was incubated with ab75852, 1/1000 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of MCF7 (Human breast adenocarcinoma cell line) cells labeling Cathepsin D with purified ab75852 at 1/100.
Cells were fixed with 100% methanol and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. ab150077, an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/1000) was used as the secondary antibody. DAPI (blue) was used as the nuclear counterstain. ab7291, a mouse anti-tubulin (1/1000) and ab150120, an Alexa Fluor® 594-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1/1000) were also used.
Control 1: primary antibody (1/100) and secondary antibody, ab150120, an Alexa Fluor® 594-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1/1000).
Control 2: ab7291 (1/1000) and secondary antibody, ab150077, an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/1000).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human breast carcinoma tissue labeling Cathepsin D with purified ab75852 at a dilution of 1/100.
Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9. ab97051, an HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) was used as the secondary antibody (1/500).
Negative control using PBS instead of primary antibody. Counterstained with hematoxylin.

Flow Cytometry analysis of HepG2 (Human liver hepatocellular carcinoma cell line) cells labeling Cathepsin D with purified ab75852 at 1/20 dilution (10 µg/ml) (red).
Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 90% methanol. A Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488)(1/2000 dilution) was used as the secondary antibody. Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue) were used as the unlabeled control.
