• 
  Western blot analysis of Focal Adhesion Kinase expression in HT29 (A), Hela (B), NIH3T3 (C) whole cell lysates.
• 
  Immunohistochemical analysis of Focal Adhesion Kinase staining in human breast cancer formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugacompact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
• 
  Immunofluorescent analysis of Focal Adhesion Kinase staining in HT29 cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a hidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight 594-conjugated secondary antibody (red) in PBS at room temperature in the dark. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).
