General description
Goat polyclonal anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule), F(ab′)2 fragment–FITC antibody binds all rabbit IgGs.
Immunoglobulins (Igs) are glycoprotein antibodies that modulate several immune responses. Rabbit IgGs against target proteins are often used as primary antibodies in various research applications. Thus, secondary anti-rabbit IgGs can be useful tools for the analysis of target proteins
Anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule), (F(ab′)2) fragment-FITC is specific for all rabbit immunoglobulins. The use of this product prevents background staining due to the presence of Fc receptors.
Rabbit IgG is a plasma B cell derived antibody isotype defined by its heavy chain. IgG is the most abundant antibody isotype found in rabbit serum. IgG crosses the placental barrier, is a complement activator and binds to the Fc-receptors on phagocytic cells. The level of IgG may vary with the status of disease or infection.
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) is a fluorescein derivative (fluorochrome) used to tag antibodies, including secondary antibodies, for use in fluorescence-based assays and procedures. FITC excites at 495 nm and emits at 521 nm.

Purified rabbit IgG
Application
Anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule), (F(ab′)2) fragment-FITC is suitable for use in flow cytometry.
Anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule), F(ab′)2 fragment–FITC antibody produced in goat has also been used for fluorescence labeling and immunocytochemistry.
Goat polyclonal anti-Rabbit IgG (whole molecule), F(ab′)2 fragment–FITC antibody may be used to detect and quantitate the level of IgG in rabbut serum and biological fluids by fluorescent techniques. It may also be used as a secondary antibody in assays that use rabbit IgG as the primary antibody. F(ab′)2 fragment–FITC antibody is useful when trying to avoid background staining due to the presence of Fc receptors.
