My research explores EMP2 expression in cancer cell lines. There are only a couple of EMP2 antibodies available. In my Western blotting, this one works the best.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

EMP2 orverexpressed NIH3T3 cell total lysates

Primary Incubation

1:500, overnight at 4C in blocking buffer

Blocking Agent

2% cold fish geletin in 1x TBS buffer

Secondary Incubation

1:5000 anti Rabbit IgG HRP in blocking buffer room temp for 1 hour

Tertiary Incubation

NA

Detection

ECL incubation for 1 min

Results Summary

I was unable to find a monoclonal EMP2 antibody to work for Western blot with human samples. This one is rabbit polyclonal, and it works fine in picking up the right band in overexpressed EMP2 cell lysate. The correct band has been confirmed via blotting with tag blot.

Additional Notes

Summary

The Good

Easy to work with, shows the band at correct molecular weight.

The Bad

None

The Bottom Line

The background is quite clear, not much unspecific banding.
