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.

This WB data was generated using the same anti-MBD2 antibody clone [EPR18361] in a different buffer formulation (cat# ab188474).
Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: MBD2 knockout HAP1 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: A375 cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 4: Human brain tissue lysate (20 µg)
Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab188474 observed at 32 & 49 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.
ab188474 was shown to specifically react with MBD2 when MBD2 knockout samples were used. Wild-type and MBD2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab188474 and ab8245 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted 1/1000 and 1/10000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ( ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging. -
Flow Cytometry analysis of HepG2 (human hepatocellular carcinoma) cells labeling MBD2 with purified ab188474 at 1/70 (red). Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% methanol. A Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) (1/2000 dilution) was used as the secondary antibody. Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control (ab172730) (Black) was used as the isotype control, cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue) were used as the unlabeled control.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab188474).
