Catalog No. ABIN964854

Product Details

Target: IgG

Fragment: F(ab')2 fragment

Binding Specificity: Heavy & Light Chain

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Application: ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blotting (WB)

Specificity: Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Rabbit Serum, Mouse IgG and Mouse Serum.

Purification: This product is a F(ab')2 fragment of IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation, ion exchange chromatography and pepsin digestion followed by chromatographic separation and extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above.  Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Rabbit Serum, Mouse IgG and Mouse Serum.  No reaction was observed against anti-Rabbit IgG F(c) or anti-Pepsin.

Immunogen:

Immunogen: Mouse IgG whole molecule

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes:

Immunohistochemistry Dilution: 1:1,000 - 1:5,000

Application Note: Suitable for immunomicroscopy and flow cytometry or FACS analysis as well as other antibody based fluorescent assays requiring extremely low background levels, absence of F(c) mediated binding, lot-to-lot consistency, high titer and specificity. The maximum amount of reagent required to stain 1 x 10E6 cells in flow cytometry is approximately 1.0 μg of antibody. Lesser amounts of reagent may be sufficient for staining. Optimal titers for other applications should be determined by the researcher. As a general guideline dilutions of 1:100 to 1:250 should be suitable for most applications.

ELISA Dilution: 1:20,000 - 1:100,000

Western Blot Dilution: 1:2,000 - 1:10,000

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Lyophilized

Reconstitution:

Reconstitution Volume: 2.0 mL

Reconstitution Buffer: Restore with deionized water (or equivalent)

Concentration: 10.0 mg/mL

Buffer:

Buffer: 0.01 M Sodium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2

Stabilizer: None

Preservative: 0.01 % (w/v) Sodium Azide

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: This product contains Sodium azide: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only.

Handling Advice: Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.
This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 µL). To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 µL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below.

Storage: RT,4 °C,-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store vial at -20 °C or below prior to opening. Store the vial at -20 °C or below after dilution.

Expiry Date: 12 months

Abstract: IgG Products

Target Type: Antibody

Background:

Synonyms: Rabbit F(ab')2 Anti-MOUSE IgG Antibody, Rabbit Fab2 Anti Mouse IgG

Background: F(ab')2 Antibody was generated by enzymatic cleavage and subsequent separation from the Fc fragment. Because of their smaller size, F(ab)2 fragments offer several advantages over intact antibodies for use in certain immunochemical techniques and experimental applications. F(ab)2 fragments penetrate into tissue samples and show better antigen recognition and signal generation in IHC. F(ab)2 fragments lack the Fc region and therefore do not bind Fc receptors which effectively lowers background staining. F(ab')2 Antibody is ideal for investigators who routinely perform flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry or IHC and other immunoassays.
