Anti-VLDL Receptor/VLDL-R antibody [1H10] (ab75591)

Overlay histogram showing HEK293 cells stained with ab75591 (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 goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab75591, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2µg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.

Flow cytometry analysis of Human THP-1 cell lines, staining VLDL Receptor/VLDL-R (red histogram) with ab75591.

Cells were taken from suspension culture and washed with PBS/BSA before fixation. Cells were blocked and permeabilized in 10% donkey serum/0.3 M glycine/0.1% BSA/0.1% Tween-20 in PBS for 20 mins at room temperature. The sample was incubated with the primary antibody (2 µg/10⁶ cells in 0.1% BSA/0.1% Tween-20 in PBS) for 30 minutes at 22°C. A FITC-conjugated donkey anti-mouse polyclonal IgG (30 µg/ml) was used as the secondary antibody.
