Anti-Dog IgG (whole molecule)-FITC antibody produced in rabbit (C15-1425-145)

General description

IgG (Immunoglobulin G) antibody subtype is the most abundant serum immunoglobulins of the immune system. It is secreted by B cells and is found in blood and extracellular fluids and provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Rabbit anti-dog IgG is isolated by affinity isolation and conjugated to Fluorescein Isothiocyanate (FITC).
The variable region of IgG antibody is specific to antigens and is highly conserved. IgG has four subclasses- IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b and IgG2c.

Specificity

Anti-Dog IgG (whole molecule)-FITC antibody is specific for dog IgG subclasses.

Immunogen

Purified dog IgG

Application

Anti-Dog IgG (whole molecule)-FITC antibody may be used for direct immunofluorescence using dog peripheral blood lymphocytes at a minimum working dilution of 1:32.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IgG (Immunoglobulin G) antibody provides protection from infections caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defense of the neonate against infections. IgG antibody has its function similar to IgM antibody in complement system activation. IgG participates in hypersensitivity type II and type III. It helps in opsonization, complement fixation and antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month.
For extended storage, the solution may be frozen in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in "frost-free" freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use.
