Merck, A6792-1ML, Anti-Dog IgG (whole molecule)−Peroxidase antibody produced in rabbit

General description
IgG (immunoglobulin G) antibody subtype is the most abundant of serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids. Mammalian IgG has four subclasses- IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG2c.
Specificity of the anti-dog IgG antiserum is determined by immunoelectrophoresis, prior to conjugation, versus normal dog serum and dog IgG.
Application
Anti-Dog IgG (whole molecule) Peroxidase antibody produced in rabbit has been used:
for the detection of antibodies against noro viruses, by ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent asay) at 1:2000 for 1 hour at 37°C
in IgG (Immunoglobulin G) staining method
in ELISA to detect the incorporation of RVGTM (a rabies virus G protein variant)
