Description
General description
Binds all mouse Igs.
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) belongs to the immunoglobulin family and is a widely expressed serum antibody. Each immunoglobulin has two heavy chains and two light chains connected by a disulfide bond. It is a glycoprotein. IgG is a major class of immunoglobulin. Mouse consists of five immunoglobulin classes- IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD and IgE. Mouse IgG is further divided into five classes- IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG3.
Application
Anti-Mouse IgG (Fab specific)-Biotin antibody produced in goat has been used in immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence studies.
Anti-Mouse IgG (Fab specific)-Biotin antibody produced in goat is suitable for direct ELISA at a dilution of 1:200000 and for immunohistochemistry at a dilution of 1:300. The antibody was used to stain paraffin-embedded, rat skin, duodenum, esophagus and spleen sections at a dilution of 1:200. For immunofluorescence of Human Gingival Fibroblasts, a dilution of 1:200 was used. For immunoblotting experiments using mouse adipose tissue, antibody dilution of 1:30000 was used.
Biochem/physiol Actions
IgG 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 and provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defense of the neonate against infections.
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) participates in hypersensitivity type II and type III reactions. IgG helps in opsonization, complement fixation and antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
Preparation Note
Adsorbed to reduce background staining with human or rat samples.
Other Notes
Antibody adsorbed with human IgG and rat serum proteins.
