Biotin conjugated secondary antibody

Manufactured by Jackson ImmunoResearch
Sourced in United States, Cameroon

Biotin-conjugated secondary antibodies are a type of laboratory reagent used in various immunological techniques. These antibodies are designed to bind specifically to primary antibodies, with the biotin molecule covalently attached to the secondary antibody. The biotin moiety can then be used to detect or isolate the target antigen-antibody complex, typically through interaction with streptavidin or avidin-based detection systems.

Thirty micrograms of protein per independent sample was resolved using SDS-polyacrylamide gels (10 or 12%) and transferred to PVDF membranes using an electroblotting method. The membranes were incubated with blocking buffer (5% dried milk in Tris buffered saline with Tween-20 (TBST)) at room temperature, washed with TBST and then incubated with primary antibodies against either, human PPARβ/δ, cellular retinoic acid binding protein II (CRABP-II; Abcam, Cambridge, MA), p65, proliferating cellular nuclear antigen (PCNA), β-ACTIN (Santa Cruz Biotechnologies, Santa Cruz, CA), fatty acid binding protein 5 (FABP5; Biovendor, Chandler, NC), poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA), or lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, Rockland, Gilbertsville, PA) at 4°C overnight. After washing three times with TBST at room temperature for 10 minutes each, the membranes were incubated with biotin-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, PA) at room temperature and then with 125I-streptavidin. The membranes were exposed to phosporimager plates and the level of radioactivity quantified with filmless autoradiographic analysis (Packard Phosphorimager, PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA). Hybridization signals for specific proteins were normalized to that of LDH or β-ACTIN.

Immunostaining analysis was carried out as described26 (link),40 (link). The primary antibodies used were cis P-tau mAb (clone #25), hyperphosphorylated tau epitopes antibodies (AT8 and AT100) (Innogenetics), microglia-specific antibody (Iba1) (Wako), and neuonal nuclei specific antibody (NeuN) (Milipore). After treatment with 0.3% hydrogen peroxide, slides were briefly boiled in 10 mM sodium citrate, pH 6.0, for antigen enhancement. The sections were incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Then, biotin-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch) were used to enhance the signals. Manufacturer-supplied blocking buffer (Invitrogen) was used for each reaction. The sections were washed four times with TBS after each step. Labeled sections were visualized with a Zeiss confocal microscope. The gain of confocal laser was set at the level where there are no fluorescence signals including autofluorescence in sections without primary antibody but with secondary antibody (Fig. S10). Slides were imaged on a Leica SPE microscope (Leica Microsystems, Wetzlar, Germany) and VS120 slide scanner (Center Valley, PA). Immunostaining images and their co-localization were quantified using Fiji/ImageJ Coloc 2.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cytosolic and nuclear extracts were prepared as previously described [18 (link)]. Briefly, after 1 h ligand treatment, cells were washed and scraped into PBS. Cell pellets were resuspended in MENG (25 mM MOPS, 2 mM EDTA, 0.02% sodium azide, and 10% glycerol, pH 7.4) containing protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche) and homogenized with a stainless-steel Dura-Grind Dounce homogenizer (Wheaton Instruments, Millville, NJ, USA). Cell homogenates were centrifuged at 1000× g for 20 min, and the supernatant was then subjected to ultracentrifugation to generate cytosol. The nuclear pellet was washed three times with homogenization buffer, and then extracted with MENG containing 500 mM NaCl for 1 h, followed by centrifugation. Cell extracts were resolved on 8% tricine sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and proteins were transferred to PVDF membrane. Specific proteins were detected using anti-AHR (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA), or anti-actin (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, USA) primary antibodies, and visualized with species appropriate biotin-conjugated secondary antibodies (Jackson Immunoresearch, West Grove, PA, USA) and a subsequent incubation with 125I-streptavidin, which was generated as described [69 (link)].

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.
