Western Blot - Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-01] (A86296)
Western Blotting analysis of Vimentin in whole cell lysate of LEP-19 human fibroblast cell line (1,3) and 3T3 mouse fibroblast cell line (2,4). Lane 1,2: Immunostaining with Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-01]. Lane 3,4: Immunostaining with Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-RE/1].
Western Blot - Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-01] (A86296)
Immunoprecipitation of vimentin from HeLa cell lysate by Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-10] and its detection by Anti-Vimentin Antibody [VI-01]. IgM heavy chain (76-92 kDa) and IgM light chain (25-30 kDa) indicated. Mr of vimentin is 57 kDa. Lr = lysate (reducing conditions). Lnr = lysate (non-reducing conditions). IPr = immunoprecipitate (reducing conditions). IPnr = immunoprecipitate (non-reducing conditions).
