Tubulin is used as a loading control at 50KDa for antibodies that are lower than 40KDa. Most other loading markers fall under 40Kda which can interfere with main results. This antibody also works very well at low concentrations on a membrane stripped several times. I would recommend Anti- Tubulin over Actin -HRP, due to its specificity and lack of cross-reactivity.

Summary

The Good

Very concentrated

The Bad

Tubulin is produced in Rabbit and is not HRP conjugated, which is fine most of the time with time being the only factor as it needs an extra secondary incubation.

The Bottom Line

Yes, highly recommend
