Western blot analysis of Beta-2 Microglobulin/B2M using anti-Beta-2 Microglobulin/B2M antibody (M00456-1).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 12% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human U937 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human U251 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human THP-1 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human RT4 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: rat liver tissue lysates,
Lane 6: rat RH35 whole cell lysates,
Lane 7: mouse liver tissue lysates,
Lane 8: mouse HEPA1-6 whole cell lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-Beta-2 Microglobulin/B2M antigen affinity purified monoclonal antibody (M00456-1) at 1: 500 overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Beta-2 Microglobulin/B2M at approximately 12 kDa. The expected band size for Beta-2 Microglobulin/B2M is at 14 kDa.

Question
I have a question about product M00456-1, anti-beta 2 Microglobulin Rabbit Monoclonal antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-07-24
Answer
We do not advise storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free M00456-1 anti-beta 2 Microglobulin Rabbit Monoclonal antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Question
Does M00456-1 anti-beta 2 Microglobulin Rabbit Monoclonal antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
S. Anderson
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-10-28
Answer
You can see on the product datasheet, M00456-1 anti-beta 2 Microglobulin Rabbit Monoclonal antibody as been validated on IF. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.
