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.

IL-6 was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg of RAW 264.7 (mouse macrophage cell line transformed with Abelson murine leukemia virus) whole cell lysate with ab179570 at 1/30 dilution. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab179570 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366), was used for detection at 1/5000 dilution.
Lane 1: RAW 264.7 treated with 100ng/ml lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 3h, then together with 300ng/ml BFA for another 3h whole cell lysate, 10 µg (Input).
Lane 2: ab179570 IP in RAW 264.7 treated with 100ng/ml lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 3h, then together with 300ng/ml BFA for another 3h whole cell lysate (+).
Lane 3: Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab179570 in RAW 264.7 treated with 100ng/ml lipopolysaccharides (LPS) for 3h, then together with 300ng/ml BFA for another 3h whole cell lysate.Blocking and dilution buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Exposure time: 1 second. -
Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized RAW 264.7 (mouse macrophage cell line transformed with Abelson murine leukemia virus) cells labeling IL-6 with ab179570 at 1/100 dilution, followed by a Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution (green). Confocal image showing an elevated cytoplasmic staining in RAW 264.7 cells treated with LPS (100 ng/ml, 6 h) then together with 300 ng/ml BFA for another 3h. The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubuin is detected with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab195889) at 1/200 dilution (red).
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution.
