What Was The Protocol?Treatment of Materials Cell pellets were lysed in RIPA lysis buffer with protease inhibitor cocktail ( Roche) and equal

volume of 2X loading buffer (Sigma) were heated at 95˚C for 10 minutes in a heat block.

Gel Electrophoresis 12% Polyacrylamide gel with a constant voltage of 185V for 60 minutes.

Transfer 0.45 µm NC membrane, 1 piece of gel (wet transfer), constant voltage 40 V 120 minutes.

Blocking 1X TBST with 5% skimmed milk powder was used and left overnight.

Primary Antibody Probing Primary antibody was added to the solution of 1X TBST with 5% skimmed milk powder and incubated on the shaker at room temperature for 1 hour.

Membrane Wash Membrane was washed 3 times with 1X TBST, with a 5 minute incubation on the shaker in between each wash.

Secondary Antibody Probing secondary antibody was added to the solution with a 1:5000 dilution ratio with mouse mAb for a blue ladder (dilution 1:2500) for 1 hour.

Membrane Wash Membrane was washed 3 times with 1X TBST, with a 5 minute incubation on the shaker in between each wash, then finally washed with deionized water.

Visualization ECL visualization for 5 minutes (the visualization time was determined by actual result. It was ensured that the visualization time was identical for the same antigen).

What was the protocol?Gel electrophoresis information: 12% polyacrylamide gel, constant voltage of 185V for 60 minutes.

Transfer information: 0.45 µm NC membrane, 1 piece of gel (wet transfer), constant voltage 40 V 120 minutes.

What did the customer think?

Antibody Specificity:

Antibody Rating:

Testing results were provided independently by H. Kramer at the University of Oxford. They stated “In U87, MRC-5 cell lysates and UCH-L1 recombinant protein, there were strong target bands detected by UCH-L1 antibody STJ96177.”
