Is an antibody going to work in a technique I am planning to use it in?

This question is worth to ask, before conducting time-consuming experiments. 

Depending upon which sequence has been used for antibody production, exposed, or buried in the native protein, a given antibody may or may not be suitable for certain techniques. 

Example 1: Agrisera antibody to RbcL form I (AS03 037) is made to a peptide which is not exposed in the native protein. Therefore, this antibody is not going to be suitable for IP (immunoprecipitation) 

Example 2: Agrisera antibody to HSP70, cytoplasmic (AS08 371) is made to exposed peptide, which makes this antibody suitable for IP (immunoprecipiation)

If the information about the specific technique, you are planning to use an antibody for is not provided, check this up with the antibody supplier. 		   Antibody techniques

Save your time, ask Agrisera before using an antibody in a given application!
