Question 1

Thursday 30-March-2006

BATCH NUMBER 164531 ORDER NUMBER -- NOT SPECIFIED --

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM No signal or weak signal

SAMPLE 3T3L1 cells (mouse) induced with TNF alpha and also uninduced cells they know message is going up by real time (measures amount of mRNA) whole cell extracts with protease inhibitors

PRIMARY ANTIBODY 1:400 and 1:500 diluted in TBS-T for overnight at 4C standard 3X wash in TBS-T

DETECTION METHOD ECL

POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE CONTROLS USED 3T3L1 cells (mouse) induced with TNF alpha and also uninduced cells they know message is going up by real time (measures amount of mRNA)

ANTIBODY STORAGE CONDITIONS 4C for short term

SAMPLE PREPARATION protease inhibitors sample heated at 70 for 10 minutes with reducing agents ponceau is positive

AMOUNT OF PROTEIN LOADED 20 ug

ELECTROPHORESIS/GEL CONDITIONS reducing 10% gel

TRANSFER AND BLOCKING CONDITIONS Novex (invitrogen) standard transfer buffer 1 hr at 130V Using Rainbow MW ladder Transfer also checked by ponceau staining 5% NFDM in TBS-T

SECONDARY ANTIBODY ab6877 (goat anti-chicken HRP) (lot 151196) 1:500 (only dilution that produced signal and that was below wells - still weak), 1:1,000, 1:5000, 1:7,500 diluted in TBS-T 3hr at RT Standard 3X wash w/ TBS-T

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU TRIED THE APPLICATION? 4+ HAVE YOU RUN A "NO PRIMARY" CONTROL? No DO YOU OBTAIN THE SAME RESULTS EVERY TIME? Yes

WHAT STEPS HAVE YOU ALTERED? Primary dilutions and secondary dilutions

ADDITIONAL NOTES Upregulation of protein confirmed by RealTime PCR Transfer confirmed by Ponceau

ANSWER:

 

Thank you for your enquiry.

I am sorry to hear that your customer has been having difficulties with this antibody. To our knowledge this antibody has only been tested on an E coli-derived fusion protein as the test antigen. I am not sure where the recommended dilution of 1:500 was derived from and have therefore removed it from the datasheet.

I apprecaite that your customer has been detecting an upregulation of TNFAIP3 by real time RT-PCR analysis. However, to improve the detection of the TNFAIP3 protein I would like to recommend that you customer increases the mass of protein that they are loading on the gel to ~50ug, decreases the dilution of the antibody to ~1:200 and applys BSA rather than milk as a blocking agent. WE frequently find that BSA produces cleaner, more sensitive and specific blots. I think that this will enable your customer to fully determine whether it is the antibody that is compromised.

Question 2

Wednesday 15-February-2006

What is the protein concentraton for lot 160353?

ANSWER:

 

Thank you for your patience.

The concentration is 1 mg/mL.
