The membrane 1-5 was blocked in 5% Milk (1 hour). The membrane 6-10 was blocked in 5% BSA (1 hour). Abcam routinely uses 5% BSA to block however following recent customer feedback our labs investigated the effect of 5% milk blocking. We can now confirm that milk is not a suitable blocking agent and significantly decreases the signal on the membrane. We have informed all users of the antibody of this finding.

  Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - GAPDH antibody [mAbcam 9484] - Loading Control (ab9484)

IHC image of GAPDH staining in human liver FFPE section, performed on a Bond^TM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab9484, 5µg/ml, for 8 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.

  Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence-GAPDH antibody [mAbcam 9484] - Loading Control(ab9484)

ICC/IF image of ab9484 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 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 (ab9484, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. 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.
