Table 1. Working Parameters for Western Blot Analysisa.
Item | Primary Antibody Dilution Rate | Second Antibody Dilution Rate | Duration of Autoradiography, min |
---|---|---|---|
TLR3 | 1:100 (goat ant-human CD86 antibody) | 1:1500 (mouse ant-goat IG antibody) | 360 |
β-Actin | 1:5000 (mouse ant-human β-actin antibody) | 1:15000 (goat ant-mouse IG antibody) | 10 |
aTLR3 is a low concentration protein. The duration of autoradiography for TLR3 and β-Actin was determined by the duration of the experiment (i.e., 10, 20, 40, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, or 420 minutes), for which the optimal duration was used for both TLR3 and β-actin proteins.
