The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the major isotypes of the human 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
Produktmerkmale
Precipitating polyclonal goat antiserum to human immunoglobulins, IgG, IgA and IgM, heavy and light chains Total protein and IgG concentration in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled goat serum. Antibody titre: Precipitin titre not less than 1:64 when tested against normal human serum in agar block titration.
Aufreinigung
Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized stable whole serum Immunoaffinity adsorbed using insolubilized antigens as required to eliminate antibody activity with other serum protein. The use of insolubilized adsorption antigens prevents the presence of excess adsorbent protein or immune complexes in the antiserum.
Immunogen
Purified normal IgG and fractions containing IgA, and IgM isolated from human serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis, single and double radial immuno-diffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) to identify and measure immunoglobulins, as secondary antibody to precipitate the immunoglobulin in normal human serum. This antiserum is not intended for use in non-precipitating antibody-binding or other highly sensitive assays. For such uses labelled and unlabelled cytochemical and immunoassay grade reagents meeting the necessary additional specificity and performance requirements are available.
Beschränkungen
Nur für Forschungszwecke einsetzbar
Format
Lyophilized
Rekonstitution
It is reconstituted by adding 1 mL sterile distilled water.
Buffer
No foreign proteins added.
Konservierungsmittel
Without preservative
Handhabung
Working dilutions are prepared by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7. 2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4 °C, not refrozen, and preferably used t he same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the product.
Lagerung
4 °C/-20 °C
Informationen zur Lagerung
The lyophilized antiserum is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4 °C, prolonged storage at or below -24 °C.
