Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Anti-Vimentin antibody - Cytoskeleton Marker (AB45939)

Overlay histogram showing MDA-MB-231 cells stained with ab45939 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 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 (ab45939, 0.01μg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor^® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H&L) (ab150081) at 1/4000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (polyclonal) (ab171870, 0.01μg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Vimentin antibody - Cytoskeleton Marker (AB45939)

IHC image of ab45939 staining Vimentin in human kidney formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections*, performed on a Leica Bond. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab45939, 0.1μg/ml working concentration, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. No primary antibody was used in the secondary only control (shown on the inset).
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.

The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab45939 at 1μg/ml and ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with ab150120, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red) and ab150081, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green).

ab45939 staining Vimentin in murine kidney tissue by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and a heat mediated antigen retrieval step was performed. Samples were then blocked with 10% serum for 30 minutes at room temperature followed by incubation with the primary antibody at a 1/2100 dilution for 18 hours at 4°C. A biotin-conjugated goat anti-rabbit polyclonal was used as secondary antibody at a 1/200 dilution.

Western blot - Anti-Vimentin antibody - Cytoskeleton Marker (AB45939)

This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using Licor blocking buffer before being incubated with ab45939 overnight at 4°C. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using LI-COR® blocking buffer before being incubated with ab92547 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using the IRDye® 800CW Goat Anti-Rabbit secondary at a 1 : 10,000 dilution for 1hr at room temperature and then imaged using the Odyssey® CLx Imaging System.
