Freezing antibodies that are not advised to be frozen, such as Santa Cruz antibodies dissolved in gelatin, can potentially lead to denaturation and loss of their functional activity. Thawing them after freezing may further exacerbate these negative effects, potentially rendering them ineffective or unreliable for use in experiments. It is generally recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding storage and handling of antibodies to ensure their optimal performance. If you have already frozen the antibodies against the manufacturer's advice, it is advisable to consult with technical support from the antibody provider to assess the viability and functionality of the thawed antibodies before proceeding with any experiments.
