Sheep IgG TrueBlot may also be used for detection in immunoblotting assays that do not employ immunoprecipitation. Sheep 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. 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. Note that there are three key procedural considerations: 1. Protein A or G beads may be used with the Mouse, Goat and Sheep TrueBlot secondaries, but not with the Rabbit TrueBlot secondary. Use of protein A or G beads with the Rabbit TrueBlot will result in contaminating bands. 2. Immunoprecipitate should be completely reduced. 3. BLOTTO/Milk should be used as the blocking protein for the immunoblot.
