Catalog No. ABIN964808

Product Details

Target: IgG

Fragment: F(ab')2 fragment

Binding Specificity: Heavy & Light Chain

Reactivity: Cat

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, Cat IgG and Cat 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, Cat IgG and Cat Serum.  No reaction was observed against anti-Rabbit IgG F(c) or anti-Pepsin.

Immunogen:

Immunogen: Cat 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

Abstract: IgG Products

Target Type: Antibody

Background:

Synonyms: rabbit F(ab')2 Anti-Cat IgG Antibody, rabbit Fab2 Anti-Cat IgG Antibody, rabbit Fab2 Anti Cat 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.
