immunofluorescence antibody customer review for anti-camkiiβ/γ antibody (stj91990)

Result

“In hbsmc, the anti CaMKII visualized with a secondary antibody labeled with Alexa 488 showed a punctuated distri-bution near the cell membrane and through the cytoplasm similar to that observed with an anti-CaMKII obtained from a different company. The negative control showed no specific and very low unspecific labeling (nor shown). At this moment, it is difficult to evaluate the antibody specificity due the lack of a western blot against proteins extract-ed from human detrusor tissue. “ - Ricardo Peneda, University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.
