Goat anti-rat 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 170 publications

Confocal image showing membraneous and cytoplasmic staining in A549 cell line.Low expression: colo 205 (PMID: 31000598). is observed. Anti-beta Tubulin antibody [EPR16774] - Loading Control ab179513 Anti-beta Tubulin rabbit monoclonal antibody was used to counterstain tubulin at 1/200 10 ug/ml dilution (Red). The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue). Secondary antibody only control: Secondary antibody is ab150157 Goat Anti-Rat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/1000 2 ug/ml dilution.

    Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Goat Anti-Rat IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150157)

    Confocal image showing membranous staining in RAW 264.7 cells.

    RAW 264.7, WEHI-231 and THP-1 cells were fixed in 4% PFA and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Primary antibody, Anti-CD11b antibody [M1/70] ab8878 at 1:50 was incubated overnight at 4° C, followed by AlexaFluor® 488- conjugated Goat anti-Rat secondary antibody (ab150157) at 1/1000 dilution at RT for 45 min. Anti-beta Tubulin antibody [EPR16774] - Loading Control ab179513 Anti-beta Tubulin, used as a counterstain at 1/200 dilution, was co-incubated with Anti-CD11b antibody [M1/70] ab8878 overnight at 4° C, followed by Alexa Fluor® 594 Goat Anti-Rabbit secondary (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) ab150080) at 1/1000 dilution at RT for 45 min. Nucleus were visualized using DAPI.

    Negative control: WEHI-231 (PMID: 2457584)
