Skip to main content

Donkey anti-goat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) is a secondary antibody with a maximum absorption wavelength of 495nm and a maximum emission wavelength of 519nm. Ideal for fluorescent cell and tissue imaging. Suitable for ICC/IF, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA.

- Intense fluorescence and high photostability allowing more time for image capture especially when detecting low abundance targets
- Minimal spectral overlap with other Alexa Fluor® dyes makes this ideal for use in multi-color analysis
- Cited in over 360 publications

    Overlay histogram showing Jurkat cells stained Goat polyclonal to Ikaros (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal donkey serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (Goat polyclonal to Ikaros, 0.1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 donkey anti-goat IgG (H&L) (ab150129) at 1/4000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was goat IgG (polyclonal) (Goat IgG, polyclonal - Isotype Control ab37373, 0.1μg/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.

    ICC/IF image of Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control ab7291 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then incubated in 1%BSA / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control ab7291, 1μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. ab98800, goat anti-mouse IgG, was then added as a secondary bridging antibody, at 1/250 dilution for 1h. ab150129 Alexa Fluor® 488 donkey anti-goat IgG (H+L) (shown in green) was then used at 1μg/ml for 1h as a tertiary antibody. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM.

    The negative control (inset) is a secondary-only assay to demonstrate low non-specific binding of the secondary antibody.
