Anti-Glutamine抗体(ab9445)

This antibody is recommended for thin section post-embedding endogenous content mapping by Light and Electron microscopy immunostaining via High Performance Immunocytochemistry (HPI) (see "Protocols" tab above)

Recommended user dilution: 1/100
True Dilution at User Dilution: 1/2000

High-performance thin section immunostaining using silver-intensified immunogold or fluorescence detection.
Enhanced detection is possible using streptavidin detection.
EM applications with 10-40 nm gold GAR IgGs or gold streptavidin.

OPTIMAL FIXATION: 0.2-2.5% glutaraldehyde,1% formaldehyde using HPI protocol (The antisera targets the glutaraldehyde conjugate of the hapten).
MINIMAL GLUTARALDEHYDE: 0.01% using HPI

The hapten is osmium tolerant (deosmication required), therefore the antisera can be used on conventional post-embedding electron microscope immunostaining.

All procedures may be carried out at room temperature. Exact dilutions for all applications cannot be predicted, but it is unlikely that deviations from the calibrated levels will be needed. Dilutions are optimized for antigen detection over a 2 log unit range.

The product is optimized for HPI/EHPI with gold or fluorescence detection using etched plastic sections. Filter diluted reagents with 0.2 mm syringe filters before use on EM grids. Enzyme-linked visualizations can be used but will compress the signal dynamic range and are less sensitive.

Use with frozen or vibratome sections is possible but will not yield optimal images as IgGs penetrate aldehyde cross-linked tissue poorly and most amino acids are present at such high levels that prozone effects occur. Use in whole mounts is not recommended for similar reasons.
