Monoclonal Antibody to IgG (Immunoglobulin Gamma Heavy Chain) (B-Cell Marker) (Clone : IG217)

Recognizes a protein of 75kDa, identified as gamma heavy chain of human immunoglobulins. It reacts with all sub-classes of gamma chain of human immunoglobulins. It does not cross-react with alpha (IgA), μ (IgM), Îμ (IgE), or Î ́ (IgD), heavy chains, T-cells, monocytes, granulocytes, or erythrocytes. This MAb is useful in the identification of leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The most common feature of these malignancies is the restricted expression of a single heavy chain class. Demonstration of clonality in lymphoid infiltrates indicates that the infiltrate is clonal and therefore malignant.

Applications Notes

Flow Cytometry (1-2ug/million cells) ; Immunofluorescence (1-2ug/ml) ; Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/paraffin) (1-2ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT) (Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires heating tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 45 min at 95&degC followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes)
