General description
IgG is the most abundant immunoglobulin comprising two heavy chains and two light chains. Each molecule has two antigen binding sites. IgG has 4 subclasses: IgG1 (66%), IgG2 (23%), IgG3 (7%) and IgG4 (4%). IgM constitutes about 10% of serum immunoglobulins. IgM (with IgD) is the major immunoglobulin expressed on the surface of B cells. Monomeric IgA constitutes 5-15% of the serum immunoglobulins whereas dimeric IgA is localized to mucosa surfaces.
Specificity
The antibody reacts with human IgG, IgM and IgA. May also react with the light chains of other human immunogloibulins.
Immunogen
Prepared from purified human IgG, IgM and IgA.
Application
Detect Human IgA using this Goat anti-Human IgA Antibody, IgG & IgM, HRP conjugate validated for use in ELISA, WB, IH.
EIA: 1:5,000-1:100,000.
Western blots: 1:5,000-1:200,000.
Immunohistochemistry: 1:500-1:5,000.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Physical form
ImmunoAffinity Purified
Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography using antigen coupled to agarose beads. Lyophilized. Buffer is 0.01 M Sodium Phosphate, 0.25 M NaCl, pH 7.6 with 15 mg/mL BSA. Contains no preservative.
Storage and Stability
Maintain lyophilized product at 2°-8°C for up to 12 months from date of receipt. After reconstitution the product is stable for six weeks at 2°-8°C as an undiluted liquid. Reconstitute vial with 2 mL of distilled water. For extended storage after reconstitution, add an equal volume of glycerol to make a final concentration of 50% glycerol followed by storage at -20°C in undiluted aliquots for up to 12 months. Please note the concentration of antibody (and buffer salts) will decrease to one-half of the original after the addition of glycerol and final working dilutions must be adjusted accordingly. Avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles.
