General notes
Isotype Control monoclonal antibodies are used to estimate the non-specific binding of target primary antibodies to cell surface antigens. Non-specific binding is due to Fc receptor binding or other protein-protein interactions. Isotype controls show negligible cross-reactivity with cell surface antigens on tissue sections or in cellular preparations. Isotype Controls should be used at identical concentrations and staining conditions as the target primary antibodies.
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 this with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation. Please check that this product meets your needs before purchasing.

Overlay histogram showing RAMOS cells stained with ab19795 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab19795, 1/10 dilution) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rat IgG (H+L) (ab98386) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rat kappa monoclonal [RTK2118] (ab35768, 2µg/1x106 cells ) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.
Please note that Abcam do not have any data for use of this antibody on non-fixed cells. We welcome any customer feedback.
