Alexa flour 488 conjugated secondary antibody

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United Kingdom

Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated secondary antibody is a fluorescently labeled antibody used for detection in various immunological techniques. It is designed to bind and detect primary antibodies from specific host species. The Alexa Fluor 488 dye attached to the secondary antibody emits green fluorescence when excited by a suitable light source, enabling visualization and quantification of the target.

Cells were fixed for 10 min with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 20 min and blocked with donkey serum (PBS with 0.3% triton, donkey serum 1:100). Cells were then stained overnight at 4 °C with anti-ɣH2AX antibody (Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA; #9718, 1:400), followed by incubation for 1 h at room temperature with Alexa Flour 488-conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson Immunoresearch, Cambridge, UK; #711–545-152, 1:500) and 0.2 μg/ml 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI; Sigma Aldrich, Rehovot, Israel). Images were collected using LSM 700 laser scanning confocal system (Zeiss, Gottingen, Germany). Mean number of foci per nucleus was determined using the FIJI software with the BioVoxxel plugin.

Paraformaldehyde fixed frozen brain sections or BMVECs grown on slides were subsequently washed with TBS followed by treatment with 0.2% Triton X-100 for 3 minutes. After washing, samples were blocked by 5% BSA for 1 hour at room temperature. Slides were then incubated with primary antibodies like anti-IREB2 (iron responsive element binding protein 2) (ab181153, Abcam), anti-4 hydroxynonenal (anti-4HNE) (ab46545, Abcam), anti-TLR4 (toll like receptor 4) (ab22048, Abcam) and anti-citrate synthase (14309, Cell Signaling) at a 1:100 dilution in 0.2% BSA at 4°C overnight. Cells were washed and incubated with AlexaFlour 488 conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson Immuno Research Laboratories, Inc., West Grove, PA) at a 1:400 dilution at room temperature for 1 hour. Negative control slides were incubated with 0.2% BSA in place of the primary antibody. Slides were imaged on Axiovert 200 microscope (Carl Zeiss MicroImaging, Thornwood, NY).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
