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
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
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.

Chromatin was prepared from HeLa cells according to the Abcam X-ChIP protocol. Cells were fixed with formaldehyde for 10 minutes. The ChIP was performed with 25µg of chromatin, 2µg of ab45166 (blue), and 20µl of Protein A/G sepharose beads. No antibody was added to the beads control (yellow). The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by real time PCR (Taqman approach). Primers and probes are located in the first kb of the transcribed region.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab45166).

Flow Cytometry analysis of HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma) treated (Red)/untreated (Green) with 500ng/ml Trichostatin A for 4 hours with purified ab45166 at 1/20 dilution. The secondary antibody was Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/2000 dilution. A Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black) was used as the isotype control and cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue) were used as unlabeled control.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab45166).

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-Histone H4 (acetyl K8) antibody [EP1002Y] - BSA and Azide free (ab171184)
ab45166 (purified) at 1/20 immunoprecipitating Histone H4 (acetyl K8) in HeLa treated with Trichostatin A whole cell lysate.
Lane 1 (input): HeLa treated with Trichostatin A whole cell lysate (10µg)
Lane 2 (+): ab45166 + HeLa treated with Trichostatin A whole cell lysate.
Lane 3 (-): Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab45166 in HeLa treated with Trichostatin A whole cell lysate.
For western blotting, VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366), was used for detection at 1/10,000 dilution.
Blocking buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM /TBST.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Histone H4 (acetyl K8) antibody [EP1002Y] - BSA and Azide free (ab171184)
Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence staining of 4% paraformaldehyde fixed; 0.1% triton X 100 permeabilized C6 (rat glioma) cells (non-treated-top panels) and (C6 + TSA(500ng/ml, 4hr)-middle panels) with purified ab45166 at dilution of 1/150. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488; goat anti-rabbit IgG (ab150077) at a dilution of 1/1000. Nucleus was counter-stained with DAPI (blue). ab7291, a mouse anti-tubulin antibody (1/1000) was used to stain tubulin along with ab150120 (AlexaFluor®594 goat anti-mouse secondary, 1/1000) shown in the top right and middle right hand panels. The negative controls are shown in the bottom two panels- for negative control 1 rabbit primary antibody and anti-mouse secondary antibody (ab150120) was used. For negative control 2 mouse primary antibody (ab7291) and anti-rabbit secondary antibody (ab150077) was used.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab45166).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Histone H4 (acetyl K8) antibody [EP1002Y] - BSA and Azide free (ab171184)
Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin-embedded rat kidney sections labelling Histone H4 (acetyl K8) with purified ab45166 at dilution of 1:2500. The secondary antibody used was ab97051; a goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) at dilution of 1/500. The sample was counter-stained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was performed using EDTA Buffer; pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control and is shown in the inset.
