Mouse anti-Human lambda Light Chain (Lambda-IgLC) Antibody

Catalog No. ABIN3026858

Product Details

Target: Lambda-IgLC (lambda Light Chain (Lambda-IgLC))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Characteristics: This mAb is specific to lambda light chain of immunoglobulin and shows no cross-reaction with lambda light chain or any of the five heavy chains. In mammals, the two light chains in an antibody are always identical, with only one type of light chain, kappa or lambda. The ratio of Kappa to Lambda is 70:30. However, with the occurrence of multiple myeloma or other B-cell malignancies this ratio is disturbed. Antibody to the lambda light chain is reportedly useful in the identification of leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. Demonstration of clonality in lymphoid infiltrates indicates that the infiltrate is malignant.

Purification: Protein G affinity chromatography

Immunogen: Purified human IgG myeloma proteins were used as the immunogen for this Lambda Light Chain antibody.

Clone: HP6054

Isotype: IgG2a kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: The optimal dilution of the Lambda Light Chain antibody for each application should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10  mM Citrate Buffer,  pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.\. Prediluted IHC only format : incubate for 30 min at RT (2)

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: Prediluted in 1X PBS with 0.1 mg/mL BSA (US sourced) and 0.05 % sodium azide, *For IHC use only*

Preservative: Sodium azide

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

Storage: 4 °C,-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store the Lambda Light Chain antibody at 2-8°C (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20°C or colder (without azide).
