Anti-ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

ICC/IF image of ab19391 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab19391, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4ºC. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

Flow Cytometry - ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

Overlay histogram showing HEK293 cells stained with ab19391 (red line). The cells were fixed with methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab19391, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2b [PLPV219] (ab91366, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HEK293 cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Tween used under the same conditions.

Immunocytochemistry - Anti-ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

Immunohistochemistry was performed on both normal and cancer biopsies of deparaffinized human Breast carcinoma tissue. To expose target proteins, heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer, microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:20 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing ErbB4 (ab19391) or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4ºC in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP, followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.

Immunocytochemistry - Anti-ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

Immunohistochemistry was performed on both normal and cancer biopsies of deparaffinized human Pancreas tissue. To expose target proteins, heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer, microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:200 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing ErbB4 (ab193911) or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4ºC in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP, followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - ErbB 4 antibody [HFR1] (ab19391)

ab19391 staining ErbB 4 in Mouse brain tissue by Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections). The sections were fixed with paraformaldehyde. The primary antibody was used neat and incubated with the sample for 12 hours at 4ºC. A Biotin-conjugated Rabbit anti-Mouse polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.
