Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - HRP Anti-Bcl-2 antibody [EPR17509] (AB209039)

IHC image of Bcl-2 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human spleen*, performed on a Leica BOND™. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer (pH9, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab209039, 1/250 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset negative control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody.

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Western blot - HRP Anti-Bcl-2 antibody [EPR17509] (AB209039)

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MES buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 35 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% milk before being incubated with ab209039 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.

Western blot - HRP Anti-Bcl-2 antibody [EPR17509] (AB209039)

ab209039 was shown to specifically react with Bcl-2 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in BCL2 knockout cells. Wile-type and BCL2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab209039 was incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/5000 dilution. Blots were developed with ECL technique.
