Our extensive selection of conjugated antibodies in a variety of fluorescent and enzymatic labels allows you to customize your experiment. We offer bright conjugates for low abundance analytes and subdued dyes for high abundance targets. Find your antibody panel today! See...

The most important factor when designing an IHC/ICC experiment is selection of the primary antibody. In turn, the critical feature of a primary antibody is specificity for the epitope. All steps of an IHC/ICC experiment must be optimized to visualize specific staining and minimize non-specific background signals. This includes performing initial studies to determine the appropriate incubation...

Rat Cortical Stem Cells (Catalog # NSC001) Ex vivo expanded neural stem cells serve as excellent tools for researchers studying neural development and neurological disorders. R&D Systems offers ready-to-use primary cortical stem cells isolated from E14.5 Sprague-Dawley rats. These cells are designated as passage 0 (P0) cells. Cells were cultured as a monolayer system. After 5 days the cells...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stromal cells, are adult stem cells traditionally found in the bone marrow. However, MSCs can also be isolated from other tissues including cord blood, peripheral blood, fallopian tube, and fetal liver and lung. Cultured MSCs are an excellent tool for the study of adipocyte, osteocyte, and chondrocyte differentiation. R&D Systems offers...

Interleukin-21 (IL-21) is the most recently described cytokine belonging to the common cytokine receptor gamma-chain family. Like other common gamma chain family members, IL-21 is a four alpha-helix bundle type I cytokine. It signals through a receptor complex consisting of IL-21 R and common gamma-chain/IL-2 R gamma. IL-21 is produced primarily by CD4+ T cells and natural killer T (NKT) cells...

Figure 1 – Effect of Varying Primary Antibody Concentration: Western blot optimization using R&D Systems rabbit anti-human/mouse/rat RSK1 affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # AF992). Human HeLa cells were solubilized in SDS gel buffer, and lysate from 1 x 105 cells per lane was resolved by SDS-PAGE. Following electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to an Immobilon-P membrane...

Technically, IHC and ICC are relatively simple and straightforward experimental methods. However, there are many variables which must be identified and optimized for each individual IHC/ICC study. Optimization of IHC/ICC may also require troubleshooting a variety of factors. The tables below highlight common IHC/ICC issues and provide appropriate experimental actions. For further assistance,...

Following incubation with the primary antibody, antibody binding is visualized using an appropriate detection system. The method of detection can be direct or indirect, and may generate a fluorescent or chromogenic signal. Direct detection involves the use of primary antibodies that are directly conjugated to a label. Indirect detection methods utilize a labeled secondary antibody raised against...
