IgG (heavy and light chains) polyclonal HRP, anti-bovine

Quantity: 200 µl

Background:
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc and Fab subunits of the IgG molecule. It includes some reactivity with other immunoglobulins via the common Fab portion. It does not react with any non-Ig protein in bovine serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. In enzyme-immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical staining for the detection of IgG, antigen or antibody, of appropriately treated cell and tissue substrates at the cellular and subcellular level. In non-isotopic assay methodology (e.g. ELISA) to identify and measure a specific IgG in bovine serum or other body fluid. In electron microscopy, since the complex between the conjugated antibody and the antigen also has electron-dense properties.This immunoconjugate is not pre-diluted. The optimum working dilution of each conjugate should be established by titration before being used. Excess labelled antibody must be avoided because it may cause high unspecific background staining and interfere with the specific signal.Working dilutions for histochemical and cytochemical use are usually between 1:100 and 1:500; in ELISA and comparable non-precipitating antibody-binding assays between 1:1,000 and 1:4,000.

Isotype: Goat Polyclonal

Source: Purified normal IgG isolated from pooled bovine serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Form: Peroxidase-coupled purified hyperimmune goat IgG, in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2).

Specificity:
Horseradish peroxidase–conjugated IgG fraction of polyclonal Goat anti-Serum to Bovine IgG, heavy and light chains

Reactivity: bovine

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 antiserum has not been tested in detail, however tested in double radial immunodiffusion no reaction has been observed with Human and Swine Serum.

Applications: ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (paraffin), Dot blot, Immunoblotting

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