Goat anti-Mouse IgG1 Secondary Antibody [FITC]

Mouse

ELISA, Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry-Frozen

FITC (Excitation = 495 nm, Emission = 519 nm)

Polyclonal Goat

LYOPH mg/ml

Pools of highly purified homogenous IgG1 isolated from mouse serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to immunoglobulins, since Ig of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. However this conjugate has been passed over appropriate immunoadsorbent to remove antibodies cross-reacting with Human immunoglobulins. This renders it specific for use in test systems containing material of Human origin (e.g. Human tissue/Mouse monoclonal antibody to an Human tissue constituent/anti Mouse Ig isotype specific immunoconjugate).

The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the subclass IgG1 as tested against mouse sera and a panel of purified homogenous immunoglobulins. It does not react with other subclasses of IgG, IgG/Fab fragments, IgM and IgA or any non-Ig protein in mouse serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. Further tested on the level of sensitivity of direct and indirect immunofluorescence staining methods applied to lymphoid cells. When used on vital peripheral blood cells this immunoconjugate does not react with Fc receptors present on cell surface membranes.

The lyophilized conjugate is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at 4C; prolonged storage at or below -20C. Prior to use, an aliquot is thawed slowly in the dark at ambient temperature, spun down again and used to prepare working dilutions by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at 4C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the immunoconjugate.

Ion exchange chromatography

Reconstitute by by adding 1 ml sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20C.
