IgD (Fc specific) polyclonal, anti-mouse

Quantity: 200 µg

Background:
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc subunit of the IgD molecule which expresses strict isotypic (class) specificity. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against serum of mice belonging to different allotypic groups, a single precipitin line is obtained which show a reaction of identity with the precipitin lines obtained with the purified IgD of BALB/C and C57BL origin used as immunogens. It does not react with IgG, including all subclasses, IgM and IgG/Fab or any non- Ig protein in mouse serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. The antiserum also reacts with membrane-bound IgD in peripheral blood cells of different mouse strains as tested by immunofluorescence microscopy. As unlabelled primary or secondary reagent for indirect detection techniques, to prepare conjugates with markers of the user's own choice, to prepare an insoluble immunoaffinity adsorbent or a solid phase antibody reagent by coupling to an artificial carrier and as catching or detection antibody in non-isotopic methodology and solid phase immunochemistry.When applied in any cytochemical or histochemical procedure or solids phase coupling technique, the optimum concentration of the IgG preparation should always be established by titration.Typical working dilutions in histochemistry are usually between 1:50 and 1:250; in ELISA and comparable non-precipitating antibody-binding assays between 1:500 and 1:5,000.

Isotype: Goat Polyclonal

Source: Purified polyclonal and monoclonal IgD isolated from BALB/C and C57BL mouse serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Form: Purified hyperimmune goat IgG, in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2)

Specificity:
IgG fraction of polyclonal Goat anti-Serum to Mouse IgD, Fc specific

Reactivity: mouse

Cross Reactivity:
Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to immunoglobulins, since Ig of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Cross-reactivity of this immunoconjugate has not been tested in detail.

Applications: Indirect immunofluorescence, ELISA, Dot blot, Immunoblotting

Storage: Store at 4C, or in small aliquots at -20C.
