IgG (heavy and light chains) polyclonal, anti-monkey

Quantity: 1 ml

Background:
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc and Fab subunits of the IgG molecule. It includes a certain degree of reactivity with other immunoglobulins via the common Fab portion. It does not react with any non-Ig protein in monkey serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. 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 immunoaffinityadsorbent 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 normal IgG isolated from pooled rhesus monkey 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:
Purified IgG fraction of polyclonal Goat anti-Serum to Monkey IgG, heavy and light chains.

Reactivity: Monkey

Cross Reactivity:
Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to immunoglobulins, since Ig of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Precipitation reactions have been observed with IgG in Serum of other old-world Monkeys, including Cercopithecus, Cynomolgus and Baboon. The product may also react with IgG of other species as has been observed for Chimpanzee and man.

Applications: Indirect immunofluorescence, ELISA, Dot blot, Immunoblotting

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