ab416 staining zebrafish retina sections by IHC-Fr. The tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde and an antigen retrieval step was performed with sodium citrate pH 6. Blocking of the sample was done with 5%BSA in PBS containing 01% Tween 20 and 0.5% Triton X, for 60 minutes at 23°C, followed by staining with ab416 at 1/100 in blocking solution for 16h at 4°C. An alexa 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody at 1/1000 was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei are stained in blue with DAPI. EAAT1 expression can be observed in the inner plexiform layer (in green).See Abreview
ab416 staining EAAT1 in Chicken retina cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with Triton X-100 0.02% in PBS and blocked with 5% serum for 16 hours at 22°C. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/500 in PBS + 0.02% Triton) for 16 hours at 22°C. An undiluted Alexa Fluor®488-conjugated Goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.See Abreview
Anti-EAAT1 antibody (ab416) + Rat brain cortex
ab416 at 1/100 dilution staining EAAT1 in mouse coronal tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (PFA perfusion fixed frozen sections). Adult Sprague–Dawley rats were injected intraperitoneally with pentobarbitone and were transcardially perfused-fixed with heparinized saline and 4% paraformaldehyde in PBS. Brains were removed, were postfixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 5h, and were stored in PBS. Sections of each brain were pretreated with citrate buffer for 30 min at 65°C to increase antigen retrieval and penetration of the antibodies into the tissues. Sections were permeabilized with 1% Triton X-100 for 5 min and blocked with 3% normal horse serum in 0.1 M PBS, pH 7.4, for 60 min and incubated at room temperature for 48h with primary antibodies. An Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated anti rabbit was used as secondary at 1/1000 dilution.
ab416 (1:500) staining EAAT1 in human cerebellum using an automated system (DAKO Autostainer Plus). Using this protocol there is strong staining of membrane cells in the purkinje glial region .Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that, for manual staining, optimization of primary antibody concentration and incubation time is recommended. Signal amplification may be required.
ab416 staining EAAT1 in Rat Astrocyte cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and blocked with 5% Serum for 10 minutes at 25°C. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/200) for 1 hour at 25°C. An Alexa Fluor®488-conjugated Goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal(1/300) was used as the secondary antibody.See Abreview
