Description:
Anti-Glycine (Low Glutaraldehyde)
Key Applications:
Immunohistochemistry
Application Notes:
Immunohistochemistry using silver-intensified immunogold or fluorescence (see recommended protocol). Samples should be fixed with 0.5% - 2.5% glutaraldehyde for optimum detection.
*This antibody has also been used and found to work with a zero-low glutaraldehyde / high paraformaldehyde fixation (4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M phosphate buffer / 3% sucrose fixative). The minimum glutaraldehyde concentration for AB5020 is 0.05%. See protocol that follows. Performance is good with frozen sections, Vibratome sections and tissue culture formats, when penetrating reagents such as 0.3% Triton X-100 are used.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
DILUTION: Prepare enough of the AB5020 for your days use by diluting 100X with 1% GSPBT.
