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

Catalog No. ABIN3026857

Quick Overview for Mouse anti-Human lambda Light Chain (Lambda-IgLC) Antibody (ABIN3026857)

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

Clonality: Monoclonal

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

Clone: HP6054

Isotype: IgG2a kappa

Product Details

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

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.

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.\. Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1 μg/million cells in 0.1ml,Immunofluorescence: 1-2 μg/mL,Western blot: 0.5-1 μg/mL,Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.25-0.5 μg/mL for 30 minutes at RT (1),Prediluted format : incubate for 30 min at RT (2)
