Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-MAP2 antibody [EPR22641-16] - BSA and Azide free (AB256512)

This data was developed using ab254264, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.

Multiplex immunohistochemistry analysis of formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded mouse hippocampus tissue staining SLC7A5/LAT1 with ab324354 at a 1/2000 dilution, ab236870 anti-NeuN/RBFOX3 used at 1/10000 dilution and ab254264 anti-MAP2 used at a 1/4000 dilution.

Panel A : anti-SLC7A5/LAT1 (green; Opal™520), anti-NeuN/RBFOX3 (magenta; Opal™690) and anti-MAP2 (gray; Opal™570) on mouse cerebrum.

Panel B : anti-SLC7A5/LAT1 staining blood vessels in mouse cerebrum.

Panel C : anti-NeuN/RBFOX3 staining nucleus of neurons in mouse cerebrum.

Panel D : anti-MAP2 staining cell body and dendrites of neurons in mouse cerebrum.

Nuclear DNA was labeled with DAPI (shown in blue).

The section was incubated in three rounds of staining : in the order of ab324354, ab236870 and ab254264 for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system.

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.

Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, Epitope Retrieval Solution2) for 20 mins.

Patented technology
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Compatibility
This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.
