General notes
ab279301 is the carrier free version of ab279289.
This mouse antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (ab68428). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.
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.

All lanes : Peroxidase-Conjugated Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) at 1/5000 dilutionThis data was produced using ab279289, the same clone in a different formulation.
Blocking/Dilution buffer: 5% NFDM/TBST.
The molecular weight observed is consistent with the literature (PMID: 824020, 2294, 6340792).
Exposure times: Lane 1: 3.25 seconds; Lane 2: 48 seconds; Lane 3: 10 seconds.

This data was produced using ab279289, the same clone in a different formulation.
IHC image of GFAP staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human cerebral cortex performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol F.
The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab279289, 1µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature. A rabbit anti-mouse IgG1, ab125913, was added for 8 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit 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.

Immunohistochemical analysis of 4% PFA-fixed, 0.2% Triton X-100 permeabilized frozen mouse cerebrum tissue labeling GFAP with ab279289 at /500 (1.968 µg/ml) dilution followed by ab150113 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/1000 dilution (Green). Positive staining on mouse cerebrum is observed. The nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).
Secondary antibody control: Secondary antibody is ab150113 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488)at 1000 dilution.

GFAP was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg rat brain tissue lysate 10 µg with ab279289 at 1/30 dilution (2µg in 0.35mg lysates). Western blot was performed on the immunoprecipitate using ab279289 at 1/1000 dilution. mouse IgG for IP (HRP) (ab131368) was used at 1/5000 dilution.
Lane 1: Rat brain tissue lysate 10µg.
