Invitrogen™ Goat anti-Mouse IgG Fc Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, APC

Description

Concentration may vary slightly from lot-to-lot, see lot-specific datasheet for exact concentration. Product # 31981 has been successfully used in Western blot, IF, ICC, IHC, IP and FACS applications. Product # 31981 reacts with the heavy chains of mouse IgG subclasses 1, 2a, 2b, and 34, but not with light chains common to most mouse immunoglobulins. This antibody does not react against mouse IgM, or against non-immunoglobulin serum proteins. The antibody has been tested by ELISA and/or solid-phase adsorbed to ensure minimal cross-reaction with human, bovine, and rabbit serum proteins. However, these antibodies may cross-react with immunoglobulins from other species. Phycobiliprotein Concentration: 0.5 mg/mL (determined by absorption = 73 at 650 nm for a 1% solution for only those APC molecules to which at least one molecule of active antibody is bound) Allophycocyanin: Purified from Spirulina platensis 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. After dilution, do not use for more than one day. Do not freeze. Allophycocyanin Amax= 650 nm; Emax= 660 nm. Reconstitute with 0.5 mL of distilled water (0.5 mg/mL after restoration). Country of Origin: USA.

Anti-Mouse secondary antibodies are affinity-purified antibodies with well-characterized specificity for mouse 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.
