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.

Predicted band size: 251 kDa
Observed band size: 280,330 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?This data was developed using ab275024, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
Blocking and dilution buffer: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Exposure times: Lanes 1-3: 59 seconds; Lane 4: 81 seconds.
The band of 330KDa represents the intact NG2 proteoglycan modified by chondroitin sulfate, the band of 280KDa represents NG2 core protein.
The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID: 20455858, 16625365, 23481707).Negative control: Mouse liver (PMID: 23481707).
Samples are non-boiled as boiling may cause protein aggregates.
