Question
Will A30446 anti-PDGFR alpha antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-10-23
Answer
You can see on the product datasheet, A30446 anti-PDGFR alpha antibody as been validated on IHC. 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.

From what I have seen in literature endometrium does express PDGFRA. From what I have seen in Uniprot.org, PDGFRA is expressed in endometrium, foreskin, brain, blood, lung trachea, placenta, eosinophil, colon tumor, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have PDGFRA expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:
Blood, Pubmed ID: 8586421

Question
Can you help my question with product A30446, anti-PDGFR alpha 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?
L. Gonzalez
Verified customer
Asked: 2016-06-21
Answer
It is not recommended 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 A30446 anti-PDGFR alpha 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.
