Schaf IgG anti-Maus IgG2a (1b)-unkonj., MinX keine

The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to the Fc portion of the IgG2a molecule. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against mouse serum of the allelic type Igh-1b, including C57Bl and SJL/J, a single characteristic precipitin line is obtained which shows a reaction of identity with the precipitin line obtained with purified IgG2a(1b). No precipitation reaction is obtained with purified IgG2a(1a) (Balb/C, CBA, AKR and NZB), other IgG subclasses, IgA, IgG/Fab fragments or other serum proteins. As unlabelled primary or secondary reagent for indirect detection of IgG2a(1b) at the cellular and subcellular level by staining of appropriately treated cell and tissue substrates, to prepare conjugates of the user is own choice, to prepare an insoluble immunoaffinity adsorbent or a solid phase antibody reagent by coupling to an artificial carrier and as catching antibody in non-isotopic methodology and solid phase immunochemistry. When applied in any cytochemical or histochemical staining procedure or solid phase coupling technique, the optimum concentration of the IgG preparation should be established by titration before being used.

Purified hyperimmune IgG fraction, lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (pH7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity. It is reconstituted by adding 1 ml sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20°C.
