Anti-Phospholipase A2 antibody (ab73406) at 1 µg/ml + HeLa Whole Cell Lysate - Bleomycin Treated (40U/ml) at 10 µgSecondaryGoat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG - H&L - Pre-Adsorbed (HRP) at 1/3000 dilutiondeveloped using the ECL techniquePerformed under reducing conditions.
ICC/IF image of ab73406 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab73406, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM. This antibody also gave a positive result in 4% PFA fixed (10 min) Hek293, HepG2 and MCF7 cells at 1µg/ml, and in 100% methanol fixed (5 min) HeLa cells at 1µg/ml.
IHC image of Phospholipsae A2 staining in humam colon carcinoma formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab73406, 5µg/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.
