General description
IgG 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. Maternal IgG is transferred to fetus through the placenta that is vital for immune defence of the neonate against infections
Anti-Mouse IgG (Fc specific) F(ab′)2 fragment−FITC antibody is specific for the Fc fragment of mouse IgG. No cross reactivity is observed with the Fab fragment of mouse IgG. Purified antibody is conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) in an alkaline reaction and then purified to remove unbound FITC.
Specificity
Binds mouse IgG; does not bind other mouse Igs.
Immunogen
Purified mouse IgG
Application
Anti-Mouse IgG (Fc specific) F(ab′)2 fragment−FITC antibody may be used for immunohistochemistry at a working dilution of 1:320 using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of human tonsil. Antibody dilution of 1:200 was used to label sections of human brainstems and cervical spinal cords with primary antibody against human Bcl-2 protein. The antibody was also used to label erythrocytes for photon reassignment microscopy and for FACS using melanoma cells.
Other Notes
Antibody adsorbed with bovine, equine, and human serum proteins.
Physical form
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
Preparation Note
Adsorbed to reduce background with bovine, equine, or human samples.
Useful when trying to avoid background staining due to the presence of Fc receptors.
