  • General notes

    ab209889 is the Low endotoxin, azide-free version of ab205921.

    Anti-PD-L1 antibody [28-8] has been used as detector antibody in Human PD-L1 SimpleStep ELISA® kit (ab214565).

    Additional information on positive controls:

    Tissue:
    Tonsil- with hyperreactive changes
    Note: Tonsil Specimens- is recommended to screen several hyper-reactive tonsils to find those with highest expression of PD-L1 in crypt epithelium, macrophages homing the germinal centers and interfollicular mononuclear leukocytes.

    Tumor tissues- prescreened for positive tumor and inflammatory infiltrates
    Note: Tumor Specimens- PD-L1 expression varies by tumor type so screening is recommended to find positive and negative tumor controls. Refer to web link publication below to find some suggested tumor types. Many tumor specimens have some inflammatory macrophages and mononuclear leukocytes. Best to look for specimens with high numbers of these cells

    Cell Lines:
    Positives: B-CPAP- high, ES-2- medium, HCC70 - low

    For primary negative control, isotype control, RabMAb negative control antibody (ab172730) is recommended.

    For negative control sample, cell line COLO205 is recommended.

    For PD-L1 protein, see ab167713

    Recommended protocols:

    For recommended Immunohistochemistry (IHC) protocol, please refer to the protocol book in the protocol section and/or here (downloadable copy)

    For IHC usage on FFPE tissues, the following antigen solution is recommended with clone 28-8 -  Universal HIER antigen retrieval reagent (ab208572) KO Validated

    For recommended Flow Cytometry (Flow Cyt) protocol, please refer to the protocol book here (downloadable copy)

    Western blot usage

    For clone 28-8, it is recommended to use Odyssey system. This system has the advantages of a wider dynamic range and less background than chemiluminescence. 
    For colormetric detection of PDL1, it is recommended to use Anti-PD-L1 antibody (ab58810)

    Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

    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.

    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 production
    For more information see here.

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

    Our Low endotoxin, azide-free formats have low endotoxin level (≤ 1 EU/ml, determined by the LAL assay) and are free from azide, to achieve consistent experimental results in functional assays.

      IHC image of PD-L1 staining in a section of frozen normal human tonsil* performed on a Leica BOND™ system using the standard protocol. The section was fixed in 10% paraformaldehyde (10 min) prior to staining. The section was incubated with ab205921, 1ugml, 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. The inset secondary-only 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.

The section was then incubated with ab205921, 5μg/ml working concentration, for 60 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system for 8 minutes at room temperature. DAB was used as the chromogen for 10 minutes at room temperature. The section was then counterstained with hematoxylin, blued, dehydrated, cleared and mounted with DPX.
