Mouse, Rat: We have preliminary internal testing data to indicate this antibody may not react with these species. Please contact us for more information.
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.

Lane 1 : Wild-type HeLa cell lysate
Lane 2 : CHEK2 knockout HeLa cell lysate
Lane 3 : HEK-293 cell lysate
Lane 4 : MDA-MB-231 cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 61 kDa
Observed band size: 68 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab109413).
Lanes 1-4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab109413 observed at 68 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 37 kDa.
ab109413 Anti-Chk2 antibody [EPR4325] was shown to specifically react with Chk2 in wild-type HeLa cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab264815 (knockout cell lysate ab257104) was used. Wild-type and Chk2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab109413 and Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [EP1332Y] - Microtubule Marker (ab52866) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 1000 dilution and 1 in 20000 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 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Flow Cytometry analysis of HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma) cells labeling Chk2 with purified ab109413 at 1/230 dilution(10 µg/ml) (red). Cells were fixed with 80% methanol and permeabilised with 0.1% Tween-20. A Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) (1/2000 dilution) was used as the secondary antibody. Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black)(ab172730) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue) were used as the unlabeled control.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109413).
