http://www.abcam.com/Caveolin-2-antibody-Caveolae-Marker-ab2911.html
Please let me know if you have information.

Best regards

ANSWER:

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

I am sorry to confirm that regrettablythe KD values for these two antibodies, ab2910 and ab2911, has not been assessed and so we are unable to provide this information. It is unusual for the KD values to be assessed for research grade antibodies.

We aim to provide as much information as possible and I am sorry this is not possible on this occasion. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Question 2

Friday 17-February-2012

thank you very much for your reply. I would like once more to disturb you and ask the following question; quite often you are indicating that antigen was a synthetic peptide. I am working mainly with chick brain and quite often it is impossible to understand if the antibody is reactive with chicks. I am interested if any of your caveolin antibodies (e.g. 93952, 2910 or any other) is reactive against chicken proteins and the same question with antibody 115822 (Anti-eIF2 alpha).

ANSWER:

 

Thank you very much for your interest in Abcam antibodies.

For most of the antibodies we have in our catalog it is possible to know the immunogen sequence or at least the immunogenic region and compare it with the sequence of interest.

For example, we know that the anti-caveolin ab18199 shows 76% homology with the chicken protein (SwissProt P35431).

If you want to test this antibody for exampleI can offer a discount off a future purchase if you buy ab18199 now, test it inChicken and submit feedback to us in the form of an Abreview.It doesn’t matter whether theAbreview is positive or negative, we would just really like to receive your feedback. The discount would be to the value of 1 free primary antibody.

If you are interested in this offer, please follow these steps:

1. Reply to this e-mail to let me know that you would like to proceed and test an Abcam antibody in Chicken. I will then send a discount code. This code must be issued before purchasing the antibody you would like to test, so please wait for my reply before ordering.

2. Purchasethe antibodyeither by phone, fax, or online (www.abcam.com).

3. Test it in in Chicken.

4. Let us know the results, positive or negative, using our Abreview system (this will take about 10 minutes and images are great if you have them!). To find out how to submit an Abreview, please visit: http://www.abcam.com/abreviews.

5. After the review is submitted to us, the discount code becomes active. Simply place your new order by phone, fax, or on the web and mention the discount code. The discount can be redeemed for anyprimary antibodyordered and the discount code is valid for 4 months after issue.

We are always pleased to obtain feedback about our products and any information is greatly appreciated! Even ifthe tested antibodyturns out to be unsuitable for Chicken, you will still receive the discount on your next purchase after your Abreview has been submitted.

Please let me know if you have any questions about this offer and I would be happy to help you further.

The Terms and Conditions of this offer can be found at: www.abcam.com/collaborationdiscount.

If you are interested in this offer, please inform us which application you would like the antibody in so I can narrow down the choice of the antibodies.

I am going to contact the lab where the anti-eIF2 alpha(ab115822) is produced in order to ask for the immunogen sequence or region.

Question 4

Friday 24-February-2006

BATCH NUMBER 134228 ORDER NUMBER -- NOT SPECIFIED --

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM X-ray film is completely blank

SAMPLE EL4 and Ramos cells were subjected to lipid raft extraction using an extraction buffer (1% Triton X-100, 25mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, 5mM EDTA and protease cocktail) and further subjected to a sucrose density gradient

PRIMARY ANTIBODY Abcam rabbit polyclonal to caveolin-1 (ab2910). Blocking buffer was removed by rinsing blot with PBS-0.5% Tween-20. A 1:1000 dilution was used. In the first attempt the blot was incubated in primary ab for 1hr which gave completely blank film (this occurred on two separate occasions). Most recent attempt the blot was incubated with primary ab for 18hrs at 4C

DETECTION METHOD Amersham ECL

ANTIBODY STORAGE CONDITIONS Antibody aliquots were stored at -20 C

SAMPLE PREPARATION sucrose gradient fractions were added to the appropriate amount of NuPAGE LDS Sample buffer, heated at approximately 100C for 10 min prior to being loaded

ELECTROPHORESIS/GEL CONDITIONS Non-Reducing conditions. Samples loaded on a 10% Bis-Tris NuPAGE gel and run with 1x MOPS-SDS running buffer at 200V for about 1hr

TRANSFER AND BLOCKING CONDITIONS Protein was transferred to nitrocellulose membrane with NuPAGE transfer buffer (500mM Bicine, 500mM Bis-Tris, 20.5mM EDTA, 1mM Chlorobutanol) at 30V for 1hr 30min. Blot was subsquently blocked with 5% Skim milk PBS-0.5% Tween-20 for 1hr30min

SECONDARY ANTIBODY Primary ab was removed by 3 x 5 min washes with PBS-0.5% Tween-20. A 1:4000 dilution of secondary Ab ([another company's] ECL Anti-rabbit IgG HRP linked, from donkey) was used and incubated for 1 hr. This secondary antibody was used with the same samples and different primary ab and worked perfectly fine

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU TRIED THE APPLICATION? 3 HAVE YOU RUN A "NO PRIMARY" CONTROL? No DO YOU OBTAIN THE SAME RESULTS EVERY TIME? Yes

WHAT STEPS HAVE YOU ALTERED? Altered the duration of the primary ab incubation (as detailed above)

ADDITIONAL NOTES We have used nearly the complete stock of ab2910 ordered and still unable to get even the slightest band on the x-ray film and would really appreciate some feedback as soon as possible. As mentioned the samples used in this western were prepped and loaded in the exact same fashion for blots using other primary antibodies and they all worked.

ANSWER:

 

Thank you for taking the time to contact me regarding the problems that you have experienced using this product in Western blotting. Since the target interacts directly with G-protein alpha subunits and can functionally regulate their activity I would advise that the Western blot is carried out in reducing conditions and not non reducing conditions. The aim of reducing conditions being to disrupt disulphide bonds and intermolecular interactions and allow separation based on charge and molecule size. Membrane proteins are especially prone to aggregation which may lead to anomalous protein electrophoretic mobility. I would advise that you alter the incubation period from 100 degrees for 10 mins to 37 degrees for one hour (in the presence of a reducing agent such as DTT). The use of a positive control would also be advantageous to discount any effect on the target by the lipid extraction procedure. The suggested positive control would be human heart, spleen or lung. I hope that this information is useful to you, if you are still experiencing problems utilising this product following the above suggestions then please do not hesitate to get back in touch with me. Good luck with your research.

Question 5

Monday 06-February-2006

I want to use this product to do Immunofluorescence on Bovine Aortic Endothelia Cells(BAEC). But I want to check the caveolin 1 on the membrane but not inside the cells. I want to check the effect of some chemicals on the distribution of caveolin 1 ON the MEMBRANE. Is this product suitable for this purpose?

ANSWER:

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

Unfortunately Caveolin 1 antibody - Caveolae Marker (ab2910) has not been tested for use by immunocytochemistry or immunohistochemistry. However, following a brief search of our catalogue I have determined that ab27514 Caveolin 1 antibody matches your requirements. It is rabbit polyclonal antibody that has been shown to work by immunofluorescence (immunocytochemistry) and has several favourable reviews by our customers. You may wish to examine the datasheets and the "Abreview" left by our customers.

I hope this information helps, please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any more advice or information.
