Invitrogen™ Rat anti-Mouse IgG2b Secondary Antibody, FITC

Description

Mouse Gamma 2b Heavy Chain of Immunoglobulin (determined by immunodot). positively tested on BALB/c and C57BL/6 mouse sera. The specificity of every rat monoclonal antibody anti-mouse IgG subclasses is determined in a range of optimal concentrations. Increasing the first or the second antibody at an unnecessary too high concentration can induce possible cross-reactions with other mouse IgG subclasses. Avidity on IgG2b: 1 * 1010 M-1. No cross-reactivity with chicken, rabbit, goat, sheep, bovine, horse, dog, swine, baboon IgG and human IgG or IgM (ELISA test). Available unconjugated MON5055, FITC MON5055F, Biotin MON5055B, PE MON5055P.

Anti-Mouse secondary antibodies are affinity-purified antibodies with well-characterized specificity for mouse immunoglobulins and are useful in the detection, sorting or purification of its specified target. Secondary antibodies offer increased versatility enabling users to use many detection systems (e.g. HRP, AP, fluorescence). They can also provide greater sensitivity through signal amplification as multiple secondary antibodies can bind to a single primary antibody. Most commonly, secondary antibodies are generated by immunizing the host animal with a pooled population of immunoglobulins from the target species and can be further purified and modified (i.e. immunoaffinity chromatography, antibody fragmentation, label conjugation, etc.) to generate highly specific reagents.
