Re: [DIYbio] Re: Recycling Antibodies for Immunocytochemistry

I've regularly done something similar for western/immunoblots.  The 'protocol' couldn't be simpler, drain antibody into a falcon and put in freezer.  Next time you want to use it, thaw and place on membrane.

I've no idea if a similarly basic protocol would work for your application though.

Oh, nice idea. Protein recycling; that's one step ahead of the curve!

If the antibody was purified using some peptide-based method, such as
maltose-binding proteins or his-tags, you could try using the same
methods to separate from the finished experiment?
