Recombinant APC Anti-alpha smooth muscle Actin (acetyl E3) + ACTG2 (acetyl E3) antibody [E184] (ab223921)

Overlay histogram showing SV40LT-SMC cells stained with ab223921 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 minutes) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 minutes. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab223921, 1/5000 dilution) for 30 minutes at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody (black line) was Rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Allophycocyanin used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabeled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 40 mW Red laser (640nm) and 670/14 bandpass filter.

This antibody gave a positive signal in SV40LT-SMC cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 minutes)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 minutes used under the same conditions.
