Hi all,

This may be a really dumb question but I just want to clarify one thing when you scan your membrane for western blotting.

I have a primary antibody raised in mouse, so I used Alexa Fluor 488 goat anti-rabbit secondary antibodies. When I tried to scan the membrane using Odessey CLx membrane scanner, there are only two channels, 700 and 800nm, so I chose both of them and got really fate bands.

Is this because I used Alexa 488 secondary antibodies? If I had used other Alexa fluor secondary antibodies such as 688 or 750, would I have got better results?
