General notes
ab271858 is the carrier-free version of ab76113.
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 compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.
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
Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.
We are constantly working hard to ensure we provide our customers with best in class antibodies. As a result of this work we are pleased to now offer this antibody in purified format. We are in the process of updating our datasheets. The purified format is designated 'PUR' on our product labels. If you have any questions regarding this update, please contact our Scientific Support team.
Mouse, Rat: We have preliminary internal testing data to indicate this antibody may not react with these species. Please contact us for more information.

Multiplex immunohistochemistry - Anti-Prostate Specific Antigen antibody [EP1588Y] - BSA and Azide free (ab271858)
Fluorescence multiplex immunohistochemical analysis of human prostate gland tissue (formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded section). Panel A: merged staining of anti-Prostate Specific Antigen (ab76113, red; Opal™690), anti-Cytokeratin 5 (ab236216, green; Opal™520) and anti-Nkx3.1 (ab196020, gray; Opal™570) on human prostate gland tissue. Panel B: anti-Prostate Specific Antigen stained on cytoplasm of luminal cells. Panel C: anti-Cytokeratin 5 stained on basal cells. Panel D: anti-p63 stained on nucleus of luminal cells. Opal Polymer HRP Ms + Rb was used as a secondary antibody. The immunostaining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument with an Opal™ 4-color kit. The section was incubated in three rounds of staining: in the order of ab76113 (1/2000), ab236216 (1/400) and ab196020 (1/2000) for 30 mins at room temperature. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system. Each round was followed by a separate fluorescent tyramide signal amplification system. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) was used for 20 mins. DAPI (blue) was used as a nuclear counter stain. Image acquisition was performed with Leica SP8 confocal microscope.
