Application DetailsIF, WB. Typical working dilutions for light microscopy are 1:500 to 1:1,000 depending on tissue and detection method. For IF, a dilution range of 1:50 to 1:100 is recommended. For WB, a dilution range of 1: 1,000 to 1: 4,000 is recommended. This antibody clearly detects a protein at approximately 24 kDa on WB of human brain tissue. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
