Applicable Applications for vimentin recombinant antibody
Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Frozen/Paraffin, Immunoblot (IB)
Application Notes
(clone RV204) is suitable for immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin-embedd tissue sections. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration; recommended range is 1:100 – 1:200 for immunohistochemistry with fluorochrome conjugated secondary antibodies or with avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex (ABC) as detection reagent, and 1:100 – 1:1000 for immunoblotting applications.
Source Note
(clone RV204) is a recombinant mouse anti vimentin monoclonal antibody produced in mammalian HEK293 cells. Clone RV204 is produced by cloning the antibody sequence of the mouse anti vimentin hybridoma RV202, which was derived by fusion of SP2/0-Ag14 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a cytoskeletal vimentin extract of calf lens.
Reactivity Note
(clone RV204) reacts exclusively with vimentin, which is expressed in mesenchymal cells and mesenchymal derived tumors e.g. lymphoma, sarcoma and melanoma. When applied to either frozen or paraffin sections of human tissues the antibody reacted with the appropriate tissues and cells, such as endothelia, vessels, stellate cells, glomerular podocytes, nerves, vessels, myoepithelial cells, adipocytes, endometrial glands, and Sertoli cells, with no staining in epithelial cells.
Endotoxin Level
The endotoxin level is < 1EU/mg as determined by the LAL chromogenic endotoxin assay.
Preparation and Storage
The antibody is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C. For prolonged storage prepare appropriate aliquots and store at or below -20°C. Prior to use, an aliquot is thawed slowly in the dark at ambient temperature, spun down again and used to prepare working dilutions by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance or the concentration of the product.

Related Product Information for vimentin recombinant antibody
Vimentin (57 kDa) is the intermediate filament protein (IFP) of mesenchymal cells. This IFP however often deviates from the tissue-specific and developmentally regulated pattern of expression. Besides its typical expression in most cultured cells, vimentin is also expressed together with several other IFPs during early stages of development. As differentiation proceeds, vimentin is exchanged for the tissue-specific intermediate filament type. Also in cancers, vimentin is often expressed in addition to the tissue-specific IFP.

Product Notes

The vimentin (Catalog #AAA574008) is a Recombinant Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Recombinant mouse anti vimentin reacts with Human, mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's vimentin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Frozen/Paraffin, Immunoblot (IB). (clone RV204) is suitable for immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin-embedd tissue sections. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration; recommended range is 1:100 – 1:200 for immunohistochemistry with fluorochrome conjugated secondary antibodies or with avidin-biotinylated horseradish peroxidase complex (ABC) as detection reagent, and 1:100 – 1:1000 for immunoblotting applications. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the vimentin for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "vimentin, Monoclonal Recombinant Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
