IgG1 IgG2a IgG2b IgG3 IgA IgM (heavy and light chains) polyclonal FITC, anti-mouse

Quantity: 200 µl

Background:
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the major isotypes of the mouse immunoglobulin system (classes and both light chain types) including antibodies to common determinants, to class and to the surface determinants of the common Fab portion, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion against pooled serum and purified immunoglobulins. In immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion using various antiserum concentrations against normal mouse plasma and serum, the characteristic IgG, IgA and IgM precipitin lines are obtained. Direct immunofluorescence staining of monoclonal mouse monoclonal antibodies in the presence of human cell or serum components at the cellular and subcellular level. 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 are usually between 1:10 and 1:40.

Isotype: Rabbit Polyclonal

Source: Purified polyclonal mouse IgG, and homogenous IgA and IgM isolated from mouse serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

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

Reactivity: mouse

Cross Reactivity:
Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to mammalian immunoglobulins, since homologous proteins of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. The degree of cross-reactivity is also dependent on the concentRations of the reactants and the sensitivity of the assay arrangement. If the product is to be used in the presence of material originating from an other species than Human, prior screening for cross-reactivity with that material is essential and additional adsorption of the reagent may be required to ensure intra-assay specificity.

Applications: ELISA, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (frozen), (In)direct immunofluorescence

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