Goat anti-Human IgM Secondary Antibody, FITC, Invitrogen™

Descripción

Concentration may vary slightly from lot-to-lot, see lot-specific datasheet for exact concentration. Product # 31575 has been successfully used in Western blot, IF, ICC, IHC, IP and FACS applications. Product # 31575 reacts with the Fc5μ portion of human IgM heavy chain, but does not react against normal human IgG, IgA or against non-immunoglobulin serum proteins. However, this antibody may cross-react with IgM from other species. Store product protected from light at 4°C until opened. To extend the shelf-life of this product, add an equal volume of glycerol to make a final concentration of approximately 50% glycerol and store at -20°C. Fluorescein Amax= 492 nm; Emax= 520 nm. Fluorophore/Protein: 9.0 μg/mg; > 3 moles FITC per mole IgG (lot-dependent). Reconstitute with 1.5 mL of distilled water (1.5 mg/mL after restoration). Country of Origin: USA

Anti-Human secondary antibodies are affinity-purified antibodies with well-characterized specificity for human immunoglobulins and are useful in the detection, sorting or purification of its specified target. Secondary antibodies offer increased versatility enabling users to use many detection systems (e.g. HRP, AP, fluorescence). They can also provide greater sensitivity through signal amplification as multiple secondary antibodies can bind to a single primary antibody. Most commonly, secondary antibodies are generated by immunizing the host animal with a pooled population of immunoglobulins from the target species and can be further purified and modified (i.e. immunoaffinity chromatography, antibody fragmentation, label conjugation, etc.) to generate highly specific reagents.
