Panel C : anti-P2RY12 staining microglia in mouse cerebellum.

Panel D : anti-GFAP staining astrocytes in mouse cerebellum.

The section was incubated in three rounds of staining : in the order of ab316105 at a 1/500 dilution, ab300140 at a 1/40000 dilution, and ab218309 at a 1/1000 dilution for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

Nuclear counterstaining with DAPI.

Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution2) for 20 mins.

The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND^® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope.

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-GFAP antibody [EPR1034Y] - BSA and Azide free (AB218309)

ab68428 at 1/20 dilution immunoprecipitating GFAP in rat brain whole cell lysate observed at 50 KDa (lanes 1 and 2).

Lane 1 (input) : Rat brain whole cell lysate 10ug

Lane 2 (+) : ab68428 + Rat brain whole cell lysate

Lane 3 (-) : Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab68428 in Rat brain whole cell lysate

For western blotting, ab68428 was used followed by VeriBlot for IP (HRP) (ab131366) for detection at a dilution of 1/10,000.

Blocking and Diluting buffer and concentration : 5% NFDM/TBST.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab68428).
