Mouse anti Human IgA1 (subclass specific), conjugated with FITC

The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to an subclass specific determinant on the CH2 domain of IgA1 as tested in haemagglutination, haemagglutination inhibition, direct binding enzyme immunoassay, competitive inhibition enzyme immunoassay, immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation, latex agglutination assay and histochemistry (Results of an IUIS/WHO collaborative study, Mestecky J. et al. (1996) J. Immunol. Methods 193, 103-148). To identify the presence of IgA1 in Human serum, other body fluids, cell and tissue substrates and to determine its concentration in techniques as immunofluorescence staining of cytoplasmic IgA1, and immunoblotting using a peroxidase labelled monoclonal antibody against FITC. The optimum working dilution is an assay-related characteristic. It may vary widely and should always be determined by titration. For histochemical use optimum dilutions are mostly from 1:20 to 1:100; in Western blotting from 1:200 upwards.

Purified monoclonal mouse IgG1 kappa conjugated with FITC, lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (pH7,2); Nopreservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity; Noforeign protein added

This product is intended FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY, and FOR TESTS IN VITRO, not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures involving Humans or animals. This datasheet is as accurate as reasonably achievable, but Nordic-MUbio accepts no liability for any inaccuracies or omissions in this information.

The lyophilized product is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C; prolonged storage at or below -20°C; Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Avoid repeated thawing and freezing. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation and will not affect the performance of the product Diluted solutions should be stored at +4ºC, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day
