Application

Anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule)-FITC antibody produced in goat has been used in immunohistochemistry and indirect immunofluorescence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) 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. IgG1 deficiency results in hypogammaglobulinemia. IgG2 deficiency increases susceptibility to bacterial infections IgG3 mediates effector functions IgG4 are associated with asymptomatic infection. IgG antibody have enormous therapeutic potential and the Fc region is involved for the development of therapeutic antibody.
