Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% Paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% TritonX-100 permeabilized mouse midbrain neuron cells labelling VGLUT2 with ab216463 at 1/250 dilution, followed by ab150077 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) antibody at 1/1000 dilution (2 µg/mL) (Green). Confocal image showing positive staining in mouse midbrain neuron cell. Confocal scanning Z step was set as 0.3 µm followed by image processing with maximum Z projection. ab11267 Anti-MAP2 mouse monoclonal antibody was used to counterstain tubulin at 1/500 dilution (4 µg/mL) followed by ab150120 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/1000 dilution (2 µg/mL) (Red). The nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-VGLUT2 antibody [EPR21085] (ab216463)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded mouse cerebrum tissue labeling VGLUT2 with ab216463 at 1/500 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use. Granularly cytoplasmic staining in mouse cerebrum is observed (PMID: 24804702). Counter stained with Hematoxylin.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) Ready to use.
Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
