Goat anti Human Ig kappa light chain (free and bound)

The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the surface and hidden determinants of Ig kappa light chain. In immunoelectrophoresis this antiserum is reacting with polyclonal and monoclonal immunoglobulins of the kappa type, Bence Jones proteins as well as free light chains of the kappa type. This antiserum does not react with any other protein of Human serum or plasma. To detect and identify the light chain type of immunoglobulins or free light chains in serum or other body fluids by immunoelectrophoresis or double radial immunodiffusion.

A pool of purified Bence Jones kappa proteins isolated from Human urine. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Precipitation assays. In immunoelectrophoresis use 2 μl serum or equivalent against 120 μl antiserum. In double radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony) use a rosette arrangement with 10 μl antiserum in 3 mm diameter center well and 2 μl serum samples (neat and serially diluted in 2 mm diameter peripheral wells.

Delipidated, heat inactivated lyophilized whole serum; No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity It is reconstituted by adding 1 mL sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles.
