SPC-108B

Rabbit antibody SPC-108B against calnexin-CT from StressMarq: excellent antibody for IF application.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Immunofluorescence

Sample

Human prostate cancer PC-3 cells

Primary Incubation

Anti-CDCP1 mouse antibody at 20 ug/ml; ON, cold room; in PBS/ 1% BSA/ 0.001% Triton X-100

Blocking Agent

4% normal goat serum in PBS/0.001% Triton X-100 after permeabilization in 0.2% Triton X-100 for 4 min RT

Secondary Incubation

Anti-calnexin ab for 2.5 hr at RT at 1:500 dilution in PBS/1% BSA/0.001% Triton X-100

Tertiary Incubation

Goat anti mouse DyLight 488; Donkey anti rabbit DyLight 649; both at 1:1,000; in PBS/1% BSA/0.001% Triton X-100

Detection

Immunofluorescent microscope; Olympus

Results Summary

The antibody SPC-108B is an excellent antibody for immuofluorescent detection of calnexin in the fixed (1% formaldehyde) human tumor cells. It does not detect calnexin without permeabilization and does not produce any non-specific staining without permeabilization.

Additional Notes

The image indicates cytoplasmic calnexin (red), cell surface and cytoplasmic CDCP1 (green), and nuclear (blue-pink) staining.

Summary

The Good

The antibody is very sensitive, works correctly only with the permeabilized cells.

The Bad

None detected

The Bottom Line

I would recommend this antibody for IF detection of calnexin in cells.
