General notes
ab251608 is the carrier-free version of ab237722.
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with
This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded mouse spleen tissue labeling CD4 with ab237722 at 1/4000 dilution, followed by ready to use Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB (ab209101). Positive staining on mouse spleen. The section was incubated with ab237722 for 30 mins at room temperature. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument. Counterstained with hematoxylin. Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is ready to use Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB (ab209101). Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20 mins.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS and sodium azide (ab237722).

Immunohistochemical analysis of 4% PFA-fixed, 0.2% Triton X-100 permeabilized frozen mouse spleen tissue labeling CD4 with ab237722 at 1/100 dilution (green), followed by ab150077 AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti-Rabbit secondary at a 1/1,000 dilution. Positive staining on T cell surface (PMID: 26994219) is observed. Counterstained with DAPI (blue). Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is ab150077 AlexaFluor®488 Goat anti-Rabbit used at a 1/1,000 dilution. Heat mediated antigen retrieval using sodium citrate buffer (10 mM citrate pH 6.0 and 0.05% Tween-20).
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS and sodium azide (ab237722).

Flow cytometric analysis of 2% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Tween-20 permeabilized mouse splenocytes labeling CD4 with ab237722 at 1/40 (right panel) compared with a Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) (left panel). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077), at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Cells were surface stained with anti-CD4 conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647. Then fixed with 2% PFA for 10min and intracellularly stained with rabbit IgG (Left) or ab237722 (Right). They recognize the same cell population.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS and sodium azide (ab237722).

CD4 was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg mouse thymus lysate with ab237722 at 1/30 dilution. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab237722 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366), was used at 1/5000 dilution.
