IgG Fab, Rat (FITC)

May be stored at 4 °C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20 °C or colder. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20 °C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.

Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Fluorescein, anti-Rat IgG, anti-Rat IgG F(ab')2 and anti-Rat Serum. No reaction was observed against anti-Rat IgG F(c) or anti-Papain.
