Rabbit IgG TrueBlot® is provided as 1000X solution. To conserve reagent, we recommend incubating the blots from minigels in sealed bags (removing as much air as possible) with minimal volume (2-3 mLs). If used conservatively at 2.5mls/blot will yield enough reagent for 20 blots. Note that there are three key procedural considerations: 1. Protein A or G should not be used for the immunoprecipitation. Use of protein A or G beads with the rabbit TrueBlot will result in contaminating bands. For immunoprecipitation, Anti-Rat IgG beads, or Anti-Rabbit IgG beads should be used for rat or rabbit immunoprecipitating antibodies, respectively. 2. Immunoprecipitate should be completely reduced. 3. BLOTTO/Milk should be used as the blocking protein for the immunoblot. Rabbit TrueBlot Set Components: 1. Rabbit IgG TrueBlot® HRP-conjugated monoclonal secondary antibody reacting with rabbit IgGs for optimal signal detection in immunoprecipitation/immunoblot experiments. 2. Anti-Rabbit Ig IP Beads: 2.5 mL. Binds 1 mg Ig/mL beads. 3. Western blot incubation tray. Special Notes: Upon initial use of the IP beads, we recommend that the vial be inverted several times to get the beads into suspension. We recommend using a large bore pipet to pipet up the liquid for use. For storage of the opened vial of beads, we recommend that the vial cap be sealed with parafilm to help prevent evaporation of the buffer. All recommended dilutions for listed applications are intended as an initial recommendation, specific conditions for each protein and antibody combination should be specifically optimized by the end user.
