Loading Control Antibodies

Loading control antibodies are widely used in WB to detect loading control protein expression level and ensure accuracy of experimental results by correcting the error during protein quantitation and sample loading. Besides, loading control can be used as blank control to detect protein transmembrane situation, the staining or ECL process of western blot.

FineTest provides a complete set of polyclonal and monoclonal loading control antibodies with high specificity and wide applications, which can be used in most qualitative, quantitative and localization analysis of proteins. We provide common and rare species loading control antibodies(e.g .human, mouse, rat etc) as well as custom services.

How to Choose Loading Control Antibodies?

01 For an obvious band effect, loading control protein needs to be at least 5 KD different from target protein.

02 Loading control proteins have different expression levels according to different cell organs. It also needs to consider sample type while choosing suitable loading control antibodies.

Applications
01 Labeled loading control:add HRP-conjugated loading control antibody during incubating secondary antibodies and follow normal steps.
02 Common loading control:When molecular weight differences between target protein and selected loading control protein is low, conduct incubation, staining and detection for target protein antibody first. Then, wash antibodies on the membrane with Strip buffer. Repeat incubation, staining and detection.
03 When molecular weight differences between target protein and selected loading control protein is high, pre-stain after membrane transfer. According to the size of protein marker, cut the membrane into two parts: high and low molecular weight. Separate the loading control protein from the target protein.
