ab109519 staining Galectin 8/Gal-8 in the human cell line HEK293 (human embryonic kidney) by flow cytometry. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and the sample was incubated with the primary antibody at a dilution of 1/100. A goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) at a dilution of 1/500 was used as the secondary antibody.
Isoytype control: Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black)
Unlabelled control: Cell without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue)
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109519).

ab109519 staining Galectin 8/Gal-8 in HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma) cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at a dilution of 1/100. A goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/1000. ab7291 and ab150120 were used as counterstains for primary antibody ab109519 and secondary antibody ab150077 respectively and DAPI was used as a nuclear counterstain.
Negative control 1: Rabbit primary antibody and anti-mouse secondary antibody (ab150120)
Negative control 2: Mouse primary antibody (ab7291) and anti-rabbit secondary antibody (ab150077)This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109519).

ab109519 staining Galectin 8/Gal-8 in human prostatic carcinoma tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a EDTA buffer. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at a dilution of 1/250. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ab97051 was used as the secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/500.
Negative control 1: PBS in place of primary antibody.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109519).

This data was developed using ab109519, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
Purified ab109519 at 1/30 dilution (2µg) immunoprecipitating Galectin 8/Gal-8 in HeLa whole cell lysate.
Lane 1 (input): HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysate 10µg
Lane 2 (+): ab109519 + HeLa whole cell lysate.
Lane 3 (-): Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab109519 in HeLa whole cell lysate.
VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366) (1/10,000 dilution) was used for Western blotting.
Blocking Buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.

Unpurified ab109519, at a 1/100 dilution, staining Human prostatic adenocarcinoma, using Immunohistochemstry, Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109519).
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with unpurified ab109519 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab109519, 1/100) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (ab96899) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (1µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab109519).
