Anti-Desmin 抗体 [DE-U-10] - Cytoskeleton Marker (ab6322)

I have issued a free of charge replacement with a new lot.

Thank you for sending your protocol, which appears to be correct, and the image file. I agree that the antibody is staining something that is unlikely to be desmin. Are you interested in trying a different antibody against desmin? I see that ab15200 has been published in an article that used it to identify pericytes:

Schadler KL et al. Delta-like ligand 4 plays a critical role in pericyte/vascular smooth muscle cell formation during vasculogenesis and tumor vessel expansion in Ewing's sarcoma. Clin Cancer Res 16:848-56 (2010). PubMed: 20103680

Here is the link to the PubMed abstract:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20103680?dopt=Abstract

and a link to the antibody datasheet:

I will be happy to send this as a free-of-charge replacement for ab6322, or a refund if you prefer. Please let me know how you would like to proceed.

Thank you for your enquiry whichi has been forwarded to the scientific support team. I would like to reassure you that our antibodies have all been tested successfully and would be covered by our guarantee in the applications and species listed on the datasheets. Therefore, any Desmin antibody tested in the species and application you are using should be suitable and guaranteed for your experiments. I am sorry to confirm these antibodies have not specifically been tested in human hemaetopoitic progenitor cells. However, I am pleased to let you know that both ab15200 and ab6322 have been tested on human samples and would be covered by our guarantee for use on samples from this species. I can recommend to check the datasheet to view a list of the tested applications to ensure that the application you are using is also tested and guaranteed. The price of products can be found at the top of the datasheet, please ensure to select Singapore from the country selection at the top right hand corner of the page to see the correct price. ab15200 tested in: Flow Cyt, ICC/IF, IHC-Fr, IHC-P, IP, WB Price USD $365.00 Click here (or use the following: https://www.abcam.com/index.html?datasheet=15200). ab6322 tested in: ICC/IF, IHC-FoFr, IHC-Fr, IHC-P, WB Price USD $365.00 Click here (or use the following: https://www.abcam.com/index.html?datasheet=6322). Freight/Packing: USD $60.00 to Singapore Although we produce many in-house antibodies, we obtain other antibodies from a wide range of sources. Therefore, comparison experiments will not often have been done. If you wish to be more certain, I can suggest choosing the antibody that has been best characterized. By this I mean the antibody that has been tested in the most applications and has the most data available (on the datasheet). I hope this will be helpful to you. Should you have any further questions please do not hesitate to ask.
