Haptoglobin antibody

Catalog No. ABIN457946

Product Details anti-Haptoglobin Antibody

Target: Haptoglobin (HP)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Goat

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This Haptoglobin antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Immunodiffusion (ID), Immunoelectrophoresis (IEP), Radial Immunodiffusion (RID)

Specificity: The antiserum does not cross-react with any other component of human plasma. Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to plasma proteins since they frequently share antigenic determinants. of this antiserum has not been tested in detail.

Characteristics: Precipitating polyclonal goat antiserum to human haptoglobin

Purification: Adsorption: Immunoaffinity adsorbed using insolubilized antigens as required, to eliminate antibodies reacting with other plasma proteins. The use of insolubilized adsorption antigens prevents the presence of excess adsorbent protein or immune complexes in the antiserum.

Immunogen: Haptoglobin is an acute phase protein synthesized in the liver. In immunoelectrophoresis it has an alpha-2 mobility. It forms a group of heterogeneous proteins consisting of four peptide chains, two alpha and two beta chains. The molecular weight is about 86,000. Haptoglobin combines with haemoglobin and is then rapidly catabolized. Concentration is elevated in cases of inflammation and reduced in liver disease and haemolytic anaemia. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single or double radial immunodiffusion to identify the presence of haptoglobin in human plasma or other body fluids or to determine its concentration. The presence of non-precipitating antibodies has not been assayed. This does not exclude the use in non-precipitating antibody-binding techniques if proper controls are included.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Format: Lyophilized

Concentration: Total protein and IgG concentrations in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled normal goat serum. No foreign proteins added. Antibody titre: Precipitin titre 1:64 when tested against pooled normal human plasma in agar-block immunodiffusion titrat

Buffer: Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized, stable whole antiserum

Preservative: Without preservative

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: The lyophilized antiserum is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C, prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Reconstitute the lyophilized antiserum by add ing 1 ml sterile distilled water. Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the antiserum. Diluted antiserum should be stored at +4°C, not ref rozen, and preferably used the same day.

Background: The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to haptoglobin. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony), using various antiserum concentrations against fresh normal human plasma a single precipitin line is obtained which shows a reaction of identity with the precipitin line obtained with purified haptoglobin. No reaction is obtained with any other plasma protein component or serum
