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.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 antibody [EPR8030(B)] - BSA and Azide free (ab236779)
ab167171 staining Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 in human placenta tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P - paraformaldehyde-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a EDTA buffer. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at a dilution of 1/200. A goat anti-rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ab97051 was used as the secondary antibody at 1/500.
Negative control 1: PBS in place of primary antibody.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab167171).

Flow Cytometry - Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 antibody [EPR8030(B)] - BSA and Azide free (ab236779)
ab167171 staining Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 in the WI-38 (Human Fetal Lung Fibroblast) cell line by flow cytometry. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and the sample was incubated with the primary antibody at a dilution of 1/80. A goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) at a dilution of 1/2000 was used as the secondary antibody.
Isoytype control: Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black)
Unlabelled control: Cell without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue)
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab167171).

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 antibody [EPR8030(B)] - BSA and Azide free (ab236779)
ab167171 staining Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 in WI-38 (Human Fetal Lung Fibroblast) cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Samples were incubated with primary antibody at a dilution of 1/250. A goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1000. ab7291 and ab150120 were used as counterstains for primary antibody ab167171 and secondary antibody ab150077 respectively and DAPI was used as a nuclear counterstain.
Negative control 1: Rabbit primary antibody and anti-mouse secondary antibody (ab150120)
Negative control 2: Mouse primary antibody (ab7291) and anti-rabbit secondary antibody (ab150077)This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab167171).

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Prostaglandin E Receptor EP2/PTGER2 antibody [EPR8030(B)] - BSA and Azide free (ab236779)
ab167171 stained SV40LT-SMC (rat) cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab167171 at 1/200 dilution overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight® 488 goat anti- rabbit (ab96899) IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab167171).
