Anti-beta Actin 抗体 (ab8227)

Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human colon labelling beta actin with ab8227 at a concentration of 2µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with a Bond™ Polymer Refine Detection kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, Epitope Retrieval Solution 2) for 20 mins. ab8227 anti-beta actin antibody was incubated for 30 mins at room temperature. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.

Immunohistochemical analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded human colon labelling beta actin with ab8227 at a concentration of 1µg/ml. The immunostaining was performed on a Ventana DISCOVERY ULTRA (Roche Tissue Diagnostics) instrument with an OptiView DAB IHC Detection Kit. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was conducted for 32 mins at 100°C with ULTRA cell conditioning solution (CC1, pH 8.5). ab8227 anti-beta actin antibody was incubated at 37°C for 16 mins. Sections were counterstained with Hematoxylin II. Image inset shows absence of staining in secondary antibody only control.

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 5% Milk before being incubated with ab8227 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 790) (ab175781) secondary antibody at a 1:10,000 dilution for 1hr at room temperature and then imaged using the Licor Odyssey CLx.

ab8227 staining beta Actin in SV40LT-SMC (rat aortic smooth muscle cells transfected with SV40). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab8227 at 1μg/ml (detected with ab150081, Alexa Fluor® 488 Goat anti-Rabbit, 1μg/ml, shown in green); and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594), at 1/250 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

IHC image of ab8227 staining beta Actin in rat small intestine formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections, performed on a Leica Bond. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab8227, 0.2μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. No primary antibody was used in the secondary only control (shown on the inset).
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

ab8227 staining beta Actin in NIH/3T3 (mouse embryo fibroblast cell line) cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab8227 at 1μg/ml (shown in green) and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594), at 1/250 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

IHC image of beta actin staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human colon*. The section was pre-treated using pressure cooker heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6) for 30mins. The section was then incubated with ab8227, 1/1000 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature. A goat anti-rabbit biotinylated secondary antibody (ab6720, 1/1000 dilution) was used to detect the primary, and visualized using an HRP conjugated ABC system. Streptavidin HRP was used, ab7403 at a 1/10000 dilution. DAB was used as the chromogen (ab103723), diluted 1/100 and incubated for 10min at room temperature. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

The inset negative control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 2% Bovine Serum Albumin or 3% Milk before being incubated with ab8227 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti rabbit HRP secondary antibody, and visualised using ECL development solution ab133406

IHC image of beta Actin staining in normal human colon, formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue*. The section was pre-treated using pressure cooker heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6) for 30mins. The section was incubated with ab8227, 3µg/ml overnight at +4°C. A anti-rabbit HRP secondary antibody (Ab97200, 1/200 dilution) was used for 1hr at room temperature. The section was counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
