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.

All lanes : Anti-STAT3 antibody [EPR787Y] (ab68153) at 1/500 dilution
Lane 1 : Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate
Lane 2 : STAT3 knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate
Lane 3 : HeLa whole cell lysate
Lane 4 : HEK293 whole cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
Predicted band size: 88 kDaThis data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab68153).
Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab68153 observed at 92 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.
Ab68153 detected the expected band for STAT3 in wild-type cells along with additional cross-reactive bands. The band was not seen in STAT3 knockout HAP1 cells. Wild-type and STAT3 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab68153 and ab8245 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/500 dilution and 1/10000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of human brain tissue sections labelling STAT3 with unpurified ab68153 at 1/140. 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. Counterstained with Hematoxylin.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab68153).

ab68153 staining STAT3 in the human cell line HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma) by flow cytometry. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 90% methanol and the sample was incubated with the primary antibody at a dilution of 1/30. A goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) at a dilution of 1/2000 was used as the secondary antibody.

Predicted band size: 88 kDa
Observed band size: 92 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab68153).
Lanes 1- 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab68153 observed at 92 kDa. Red - Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) observed at 37 kDa.
ab68153 was shown to react with STAT3 in wild-type HeLa cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab255436 (knockout cell lysate ab263797) was used. Wild-type HeLa and STAT3 knockout HeLa cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in 0.1% TBST with 3% non-fat dried milk. ab68153 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively.
