Protocols
View specific protocols for VEGF Antibody (VG1) - BSA Free (NB100-664):
Sample Preparation.
1. Grow cells to 60-85% confluency. Flow cytometry requires between 2 x 105 and 1 x 106 cells for optimal performance.
2. If cells are adherent, harvest gently by washing once with staining buffer and then scraping. Avoid using trypsin as this can disrupt certain epitopes of interest. If enzymatic harvest is required, use Accutase, Collagenase, or TrypLE Express for a less damaging option.
3. Reserve 100 uL for counting, then transfer cell volume into a 50 mL conical tube and centrifuge for 8 minutes at 400 RCF.
a. Count cells using a hemocytometer and a 1:1 trypan blue exclusion stain to determine cell viability before starting the flow protocol. If cells appear blue, do not proceed.
4. Re-suspend cells to a concentration of 1 x 106 cells/mL in staining buffer (NBP2-26247).
5. Aliquot out 1 mL samples in accordance with your experimental samples.
Tip: When cell surface and intracellular staining are required in the same sample, it is advisable that the cell surface staining be performed first since the fixation and permeablization steps might reduce the availability of surface antigens.
Intracellular Staining.
Tip: When performing intracellular staining, it is important to use appropriate fixation and permeabilization reagents based upon the target and its subcellular location. Generally, our Intracellular Flow Assay Kit (NBP2-29450) is a good place to start as it contains an optimized combination of reagents for intracellular staining as well as an inhibitor of intracellular protein transport (necessary if staining secreted proteins). Certain targets may require more gentle or transient permeabilization protocols such as the commonly employed methanol or saponin-based methods.
Protocol for Cytoplasmic Targets:
Optional: Perform cell surface staining as described in the previous section.
1. Fix the cells by adding 100 uL fixation solution (such as 4% PFA) to each sample for 10-15 minutes.
2. Permeabilize cells by adding 100 uL of a permeabization buffer to every 1 x 106 cells present in the sample. Mix well and incubate at room temperature for 15 minutes.
a. For cytoplasmic targets, use a gentle permeabilization solution such as 1X PBS + 0.5% Saponin or 1X PBS + 0.5% Tween-20.
b. To maintain the permeabilized state throughout your experiment, use staining buffer + 0.1% of the permeabilization reagent (i.e. 0.1% Tween-20 or 0.1% Saponin).
3. Following the 15 minute incubation, add 2 mL of the staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer to each sample.
4. Centrifuge for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
5. Discard supernatant and re-suspend in 1 mL of staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer.
6. Stain each sample at 1 uL/ 1 x 106 cells of primary antibody or 1-3 uL/ 1 x 106 cells for directly conjugated antibodies. Mix well and incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes- 1 hour. Gently mix samples every 10-15 minutes.
7. Following the primary/conjugate incubation, add 2 mL/sample of staining buffer +0.1% permeabilizer and centrifuge for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
8. Remove supernatant and re-suspend each sample in 2 mL staining buffer + 0.1% permeabilizer, repeat wash for 5 minutes at 400 RCF.
9. If using a directly conjugated antibody, after the second wash, re-suspend cell pellet to a final volume of 500 uL per sample and proceed with flow analysis.
Culture cells to appropriate density in 35 mm culture dishes or 6-well plates.
1. Remove culture medium and wash the cells briefly in PBS. Add 10% formalin to the dish and fix at room temperature for 10 minutes.
2. Remove the formalin and wash the cells in PBS.
3. Permeablize the cells with 0.1% Triton X100 or other suitable detergent for 10 min.
4. Remove the permeablization buffer and wash three times for 10 minutes each in PBS. Be sure to not let the specimen dry out.
5. To block nonspecific antibody binding, incubate in 10% normal goat serum from 1 hour to overnight at room temperature.
6. Add primary antibody at appropriate dilution and incubate overnight at 4C.
7. Remove primary antibody and replace with PBS. Wash three times for 10 minutes each.
8. Add secondary antibody at appropriate dilution. Incubate for 1 hour at room temperature.
9. Remove secondary antibody and replace with PBS. Wash three times for 10 minutes each.
10. Counter stain DNA with DAPi if required.
Antigen Unmasking:
Bring slides to a boil in 10 mM sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0) then maintain at a sub-boiling temperature for 10 minutes. Cool slides on bench-top for 30 minutes (keep slides in the sodium citrate buffer at all times).
Staining:
1. Wash sections in deionized water three times for 5 minutes each.
2. Wash sections in PBS for 5 minutes.
3. Block each section with 100-400 ul blocking solution (1% BSA in PBS) for 1 hour at room temperature.
4. Remove blocking solution and add 100-400 ul diluted primary antibody. Incubate overnight at 4 C.
5. Remove antibody solution and wash sections in wash buffer three times for 5 minutes each.
6. Add 100-400 ul HRP polymer conjugated secondary antibody. Incubate 30 minutes at room temperature.
7. Wash sections three times in wash buffer for 5 minutes each.
8. Add 100-400 ul DAB substrate to each section and monitor staining closely.
9. As soon as the sections develop, immerse slides in deionized water.
10. Counterstain sections in hematoxylin.
11. Wash sections in deionized water two times for 5 minutes each.
12. Dehydrate sections.
13. Mount coverslips.
1. Perform SDS-PAGE on samples to be analyzed, loading 10-25 ug of total protein per lane.
2. Transfer proteins to PVDF membrane according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the membrane and transfer apparatus.
3. Stain the membrane with Ponceau S (or similar product) to assess transfer success, and mark molecular weight standards where appropriate.
4. Rinse the blot TBS -0.05% Tween 20 (TBST).
5. Block the membrane in 5% Non-fat milk in TBST (blocking buffer) for at least 1 hour.

Q: I am interested in buying an antibody to VEGF to detect VEGF in human umbilical vein endothelial cells for western blotting and was wondering if you might have any recommendations? I was thinking about NB100-664. Do you have a recommended amount to use for western blotting? Could I ask you what concentration the antibody is at since it says 0.1mg so what total volume do you send? Also is this the most commonly purchase one for western blotting do you know?
A: We do not have a recommended dilution noted for this specific antibody, but our general recommendation for Western blot is 1:1000-1:2000.This is a good starting point, but we always recommend optimization by the end user, as the optimal dilution is to some extent dependent on the particular sample/assay. The concentration for this product is stated as 1 mg/ml, so 0.1 mg would be supplied in 0.1 ml.
-
Q: I am looking for a VEGF-A antibody for the IHC staining of mouse colon. Do you have any publications or application references for this product?
A: NB100-664 is one of our best sellers with great customer feedback and citations in at least 18 peer reviewed publications from highly esteemed researchers. As far as mouse tissues are concerned, I would recommend that you go through the following paper: Milanesi A, et al. Beta-Cell regeneration mediated by human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. PLoS One. 2012;7(8):e42177. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0042177. Epub 2012 Aug 7. PMID:22879915.
-
Q: I would be very grateful if you could let me know a recommended dilution for the VEGF antibody antibody NB100-664
A: The recommended dilution for IHC is 1:20-1:50 in an ABC method. If instead you are testing on cell culture, I would recommend a starting optimization point of 1:10 -1:2000.
-
Q: I would like to know the aproximate dilution of the VEGF Antibody (NB100-664) to use it in a Western blot assay.
A: In regards to your inquiry about our VEGF antibody (NB100-664), I am showing from the lab data that they have tested dilutions in the range of 1:500-1:1000 for this antibody. The optimal dilution should depend on your samples and the level of expression of VEGF, but a good starting point would be 1:1000 and then optimize from there.
-
Q: What is the heparin binding activity of FGF and VEGF?
A: These proteins are not assayed for their ability to bind Heparin. More information about the FGF family of growth factors is available in this review article: Basilico, C. (1992) Adv. Can. Res. 59:115.
-
Q: What is the minimum amount of protein necessary for the detection of VEGF by Western blot using VEGF Antibody (NB100-664)?
A: I would suggest at minimum 10ug of protein per well but if you have enough sample you might want to run multiple wells with increasing amounts of protein to optimize the conditions in your hands. You could start with 5ug and do a couple of wells with 10ug, 20ug and 40ug. Also try using different dilutions of primary, start with 1:500-1:1000 and work your way up or down depending on what your blot looks like.
-
Q: Why is the molecular weight of VEGF different from the similar antibody, for some companies the the molecular weight is 40KD)?
A: I can't comment on another company's antibody because I don't have any information about their products. I can tell you that VEGF is expressed in a variety of isoforms and is subject to various post-translational modifications that influence its apparent molecular weight in an SDS-PAGE gel compared to the theoretical molecular weight.
