Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human adenocarcinoma of the colon tissue labelling ROCK2 + ROCK1 with purified ab45171 at 1/100. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9. A prediluted HRP-polymer conjugated anti-rabbit IgG was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control using PBS instead of primary antibody. Counterstained with hematoxylin.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of HeLa cells labelling ROCK2 + ROCK1 with purified ab45171 at 1/50. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. ab150078, an Alexa Fluor® 555-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (1/500) was used as the secondary antibody. DAPI (blue) was used as the nuclear counterstain.
Control: primary antibody (1/50) and secondary antibody, ab150113, an Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (1/500).

Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with unpurified ab45171 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab45171, 1/1000 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (0.1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

Unpurified ab45171 staining ROCK2 + ROCK1 in mouse embyro 18dpc tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 1% FBS/BSA for 2 hours at room temperature; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in Tris pH 9. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100 in 1% BSA + 1% FBS in TBS) for 16 hours. An undiluted HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.
