General description
Chicken IgY is made of two heavy (H) and two light (L) chains. Its molecular weight is about ~180 kDa.
Specificity
Rabbit Anti-Chicken IgY (IgG) (whole molecule)-Peroxidase antibody binds to chicken IgY.
Immunogen
purified chicken IgY (IgG)
Application
Anti-Chicken IgY (IgG) (whole molecule) FITC antibody has been used in immunohistology.
Avian proteins over expressed and purified from E. coli were analyzed by western blot using HRP-conjugated rabbit anti-chicken IgY as the secondary at 1:2000 dilution.
Rabbit Anti-Chicken IgY (IgG) (whole molecule)-Peroxidase antibody has been used for ELISA. The antibody can also be used for dot blot (1:160,000) and IHC (1:500) assays.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Chicken IgY is the major antibody found in chicken serum. Chickens generate a comparatively enhanced antibody response to mammalian antigenic proteins. These immunoglobulins do not bind to Fc receptors present in mammals and bacteria, and also do not interact with rheumatoid factors. Thus anti-chicken antibodies are useful analytical tools for various research applications.
IgY plays a major role in defense mechanism against systemic infections. It also possesses the ability to initiate anaphylactic reactions.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 0.05% MIT.
Preparation Note
Prepared by the two-step glutaraldehyde method described by Avrameas, S., et al., Scand. J. Immunol., 8, Suppl. 7, 7 (1978).
