Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Rab5 antibody [EPR5438] - Early Endosome Marker (ab109534)
Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin embedded human pancreas with purified ab109534 at a working dilution of 1 in 1000. The secondary antibody used is a HRP polymer for rabbit IgG. The sample is counter-stained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was perfomed using Tris-EDTA buffer, pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control, and is shown in the inset.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of Pancreas tissue sections (with ADM and PanIN lesions) from KC mice labeling Rab5 with ab109534 at 1/200 dilution. Tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with TritonX100 0.1% for 10 min at room temperature. Heat-mediated antigen retrieval was performed using TRIS-EDTA pH9 buffer. Tissue sections were blocked with 10% goat serum for 1 hour at 20°C. A polyclonal goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 secondary antibody was used at 1/500 dilution.
