General notes
ab220820 is the carrier-free version of ab33922.
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.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free production

Imaging Mass Cytometry™ (IMC™) image of human glioblastoma brain cancer tissue stained with Anti-GFAP antibody [EP672Y]. ab220820 (carrier-free antibody, purified) was metal-conjugated using a Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm. Immunostaining was performed according to Fluidigm’s protocols. Briefly, slides were subject to deparaffinization and heat-induced epitope retrieval, followed by overnight incubation at 4°C with an antibody cocktail containing metal-tagged antibodies in blocking buffer. Slides were subsequently washed with 0.2% Triton-X and 1x PBS, counterstained with Cell-ID™ Intercalator-Ir diluted at 1/400 in 1x PBS for 30 min at room temperature, rinsed for 5 min with distilled H2O, and air-dried prior to IMC™ acquisition. IMC™ acquisition was performed using the Fluidigm Hyperion™ Imaging System.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of Embryonic mouse primary neural cells labeling GFAP with purified ab33922 at 1:100 dilution (10 μg/ml). Cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor© 488, ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1:1000 (2 μg/ml) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as nuclear counterstain. Cells were counterstained with Tau Mouse mAb 1:100 (5 μg/ml). ab150120 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) was used as the secondary antibody for the counter stain at 1:1000 (2 μg/ml) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as nuclear counterstain.
