Quick Overview for kappa Light Chain antibody (ABIN6173953)

Target: kappa Light Chain

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This kappa Light Chain antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Clone: HP6053 L1C1

Product Details anti-kappa Light Chain Antibody

Purpose: Mouse Monoclonal anti-Human Kappa Light Chain (HP6053 + L1C1), Purified, with BSA

Characteristics: This MAb is specific to kappa 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 kappa 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. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF ® dyes and other labels. CF ® dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF ®405S and CF ®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.

Purification: Purified
