Anti-Sall4 antibody (ab29112)

Gel type: MOPS

Blocking buffer: 1% milk block

ab29112 staining SALL4 in mES cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween 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 ab29112 at 1µg/ml and ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with ab150081, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 488), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150120, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 594), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Also suitable in cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min).

Image was acquired with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems TCS SP8) and a single confocal section is shown.

IHC image of Sall4 antibody staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human testis seminoma* performed on a Leica BOND^TM system using the standard protocol. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab29112, 1ug/ml, 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.

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.

ICC/IF image of ab29112 stained human embryonic stem cells. The cells were fixed in Paraformaldehyde, permeabilized using 0.1% Triton X-100, blocked with 10% Goat serum, 0.1% BSA in PBS for 1 hour at RT, before incubation with ab29112 at a 1/100 dilution for 12 hours at 4°C. The secondary used was an Alexa Fluor^® 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit polyclonal, at 1/200 dilution.

MEF1 whole cell lysate was included as a negative control. 

Secondary antibody - goat anti-rabbit HRP (ab97051)

IHC-P image of Sall4 staining with ab29112 on tissue sections from a 3 year old adult marmoset testis. The sections were subjected to heat-mediated antigen retrieval using Dako antigen retrieval solution. The sections were then blocked with 5% milk for 30 minutes at 25°C, before incubation with ab29112 (1/100 dilution) for 20 hours at 4°C. The secondary was an Alexa Fluor^® 555 conjugated goat anti-rabbit polyclonal, used at a 1/500 dilution.
