Applications
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab3298 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
| Application | Notes |
|---|---|
| IHC-FrFl | IHC-FrFl: Use at an assay dependent concentration. |
| ICC/IF | ICC/IF: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Used at a dilution of 1/50 for 2 hours (see Abreview for further information). |
| ICC | ICC: Use at an assay dependent dilution. |
| IHC-P | IHC-P: Use a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. PubMed: 18167556Samples require boiling tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0, for 10 - 20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min. This antibody can be used to stain themitochondria in cell / tissue preparations and can be used as a marker of the mitochondria in subcellular fractions. |
| IHC-Fr | IHC-Fr: Use at an assay dependent dilution. |
| WB | WB: Use a concentration of 1 - 2 µg/ml. This antibody detects a band of 60 kDa, which corresponds to the predicted molecular weight of the non glycosylated protein component of mitochondria. |
| Flow Cyt | Flow Cyt: Use 1µg for 106 cells. |
Target
- RelevanceMitochondria are the power house of the cell. They are distinct organelles with two membranes. Usually they are rod shaped, however they can be round. The outer membrane limits the organelle and the inner membrane is thrown into folds or shelves that project inward and are called "cristae mitochondriales".

Overlay histogram showing HEK293 cells stained with ab3298 (red line). The cells were fixed with 100% 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 (ab3298, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 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.

Following paraformaldehyde fixation and permeabilisation with 0.5%TX100 the cells were blocked with 5% serum (for 20 hours at 25°C). The primary antibody was diluted 1/100 in PBS, 2% goat serum, 0.1% TX100 and incubated for 1 hour at 25°C. An Alexa Fluor® 546 conjugated goat anti-mouse was used as the secondary.
Mitochondria are labeled with red fluorescence, and the nuclei were counterstained with DAPI.

Sections were paraformaldehyde fixed, permeabilized in 0.1% saponin prior to blocking in BSA (1%) + normal goat serum (2%) for 30 minutes at 20°C and then incubated with ab3298 for 1 hour at 20°C. Alexa fluor® 594 goat polyclonal to mouse Ig, diluted 1/1000, was used as the secondary antibody. -

The cells were 4% PFA 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 (ab3298, 10µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG - H&L, pre-adsorbed (ab96879) used at a 1/250 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. -
