F(ab')2 Horse IgG F(ab')2 Antibody Peroxidase Conjugated

Description

Background

F(ab')2 Anti-Horse IgG F(ab')2 Peroxidase Antibody generated in rabbit detects Horse F(ab')2. Representing approximately 75% of serum immunoglobulins, IgG is the most abundant antibody isotype found in the circulation. IgG molecules are synthesized and secreted by plasma B cells. Secondary Antibodies are available in a variety of formats and conjugate types. When choosing a secondary antibody product, consideration must be given to species and immunoglobulin specificity, conjugate type, fragment and chain specificity, level of cross-reactivity, and host-species source and fragment composition. F(ab')2 Antibody is ideal for investigators who routinely perform flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry or IHC and other immunoassays.

Application Note

This product has been assayed against 1.0 ug of Horse IgG in a standard capture ELISA using ABTS (2,2’-azino-bis-[3-ethylbenthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid]) code # ABTS-100 as a substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature.  A working dilution of 1:10,000 to 1:50,000 of the reconstitution concentration is suggested for this product.

Purity/Specificity

This product is a F(ab’)2  fragment of an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation, ion exchange chromatography and pepsin digestion followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above.  Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Peroxidase, anti-Rabbit Serum, Horse IgG, Horse IgG F(ab’)2  and Horse Serum.  No reaction was observed against Horse IgG F(c), anti-Rabbit IgG F(c) or anti-Pepsin.
