RGS16 Antibody

Catalog Number:

abx002999

We recommend using the antibody rather concentrated. A dilution of 1:2000 for WB did not give good results but using it 1:200 works fine. We also tested the antibody on paraffin-embedded brain tissue sections. The antibody works also for IHC-P stainings. Use a 1:500 or even a higher dilution otherwise there will be a lot of background.
