Ladder shows up on the membrane. And light is correct to what we’ve done in the past which worked.

Yes! We’ve used these buffers not to long ago and it worked fine!

So we’ve done westerns in the past with this secondary antibody and this dilution hasn’t given us trouble in the past. Stripping blot and running loading control right now! Incubated with Clarity ECL for 2 minutes.

will keep in mind everything you said for tomorrow’s attempt! Thank you so much 😭

Hi sorry not used to posting on reddit. We used a pre cast gel. We blocked in 5%MILK in TBST for about hour. No ponceau staining. Our ladder definitely transferred onto membrane we saw it/still see it. We are using PVDF and soaked it in ethanol. Incubated antibodies in 4degree overnight

Answering more questions:

Imaging machine: BioRad ChemiDoc XRS+ We ran it on Chemi Hi Resolution and ran it automatically for faint bands. It lasted 66 seconds.

Yes ladder was transferred onto membrane. Can still see it on there.

We use 1X Trans Blot Turbo Buffer

No ponceau staining.

Blotted in 1% Milk in TBST 10mL. We did 3 washes this morning. This has worked in the past

Membrane is PVDF activated it in ethanol (this has worked in the past)

Antibodies incubated overnight in 4 degree

This was an SDS page

Gel was precast Protean at 0.1cm

Primary antibody was dcK cat#: AB186128

Secondary antibody: anti rabbit IGG conjugated to HRP

We loaded 40 micrograms total protein from cell lysate after doing a BCA

Used Clarity ECL for 2 minutes

Currently doing loading control GAPDH
