Mouse anti-Human IgM Heavy Chain Antibody

Catalog No. ABIN3026664

Quick Overview for Mouse anti-Human IgM Heavy Chain Antibody (ABIN3026664)

Target: IgM Heavy Chain

Clonality: Monoclonal

Application: Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p)), Western Blotting (WB), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunofluorescence (IF)

Clone: IM373

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Product Details

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Characteristics: This antibody recognizes a protein of 75 kDa, identified as the mu heavy chain of human immunoglobulins. It does not cross-react with alpha (IgA), gamma (IgG), epsilon (IgE), or delta (IgD), heavy chains, T-cells, monocytes, granulocytes, or erythrocytes. The antibody is useful in the identification of leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The most common feature of these malignancies is the restricted expression of a single heavy chain class. Demonstration of clonality in lymphoid infiltrates indicates that the infiltrate is clonal and therefore malignant.

Purification: Protein G affinity chromatography

Immunogen: Recombinant heavy chain of human IgM was used as the immunogen for this antibody.

Application Details

Application Notes: The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the antibody to be titered up or down for optimal performance.

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.\. FACS: 0.5-1 μg/million cells,IF: 0.5-1 μg/mL,WB: 0.5-1 μg/mL,IHC (FFPE): 0.5-1 μg/mL for 30 minutes at RT (1),Prediluted format : incubate for 30 min at RT (2)

Restrictions: For Research Use only
