Application

Bovine CVEC and human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cell lysates were analyzed by western blot using HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG Fab specific as the secondary antibody at a 1:3000 dilution.

Anti-Mouse IgG (Fab specific)-Peroxidase antibody has been used in immunofluorescence, ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and immunoblotting.Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (Fab specific)-Peroxidase antibody can be used for western blotting assays. The product can also be used for direct ELISA (1:60,000) and IHC (1:150) applications.

Murine IgG levels were quantitated in brain abscess homogenates by ELISA using HRP conjugated goat anti-mouse Fab specific antibody as the detection antibody.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) regulates immune responses such as phagocytosis and is also involved in the development of autoimmune diseases. IgG1 regulates complement fixation, opsonization and antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity in mice. IgG participates in hypersensitivity type II and type III.

General description

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a glycoprotein antibody. IgG belongs to the immunoglobulin family and is a widely expressed serum antibody. An immunoglobulin has two heavy chains and two light chains connected by a disulfide bond. Mouse consists of five immunoglobulin classes- IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD and IgE. Mouse IgGs have four distinct isotypes, namely, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3.

Immunogen

Purified mouse IgG Fab fragment

Other Notes

Antibody adsorbed with human IgG.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 0.05% MIT.

Preparation Note

Prepared by the two-step glutaraldehyde method described by Avrameas, S., et al., Scand. J. Immunol., 8, Suppl. 7, 7 (1978).

Adsorbed to reduce background staining with human samples.

Specificity

Specificity of the Anti-Mouse IgG (Fab Specific)- Peroxidase is determined by immunoelectrophoresis (IEP), prior to conjugation. By IEP, single precipitation arcs are observed against normal mouse serum, mouse IgG and the Fab fragment of mouse IgG, while no reaction is observed against the Fc fragment of mouse IgG or human IgG. Binds all mouse IgGs.

Storage and Stability

Store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, the solution may be frozen in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in "frost-free" freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use.
