Catalog No. ABIN458234

Quick Overview for Rabbit anti-Human kappa Light Chain (Free & Bound) Antibody (ABIN458234)

Target: kappa Light Chain

Clonality: Polyclonal

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunofluorescence (IF), Dot Blot (DB)

Isotype: IgG

Product Details

Binding Specificity: Free & Bound

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Specificity: IgG fraction of polyclonal Rabbit antiSerum to free and bound Human Ig kappa light chain.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to immunoglobulins and their fragments, since Ig of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Cross-reactivity of this antiSerum has not been tested in detail.

Characteristics: The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the surface and hidden determinants of Ig kappa light chain. In immunoelectrophoresis this antiserum is reacting with polyclonal and monoclonal immunoglobulins of the kappa type, Bence Jones proteins as well as free light chains of the kappa type. This antiserum does not react with any other protein of human serum or plasma. This IgG preparation is intended for use in precipitating (gel diffusion) and nonprecipitating antibody-binding immunoassays (indirect immunofluorescence, enzyme immunoassays for the detection of polyclonal immunoglobulins, purified monoclonal immunoglobulins of the kappa type as well as free light chains or Bence Jones proteins of the kappa type in serum or other body fluids, to prepare an insoluble immunoaffinity adsorbent or a solid phase catching antibody reagent by coupling to an artificial carrier, for labeling with a marker of the user's own choice. When applied in any cytochemical or histochemical procedure or solids phase coupling technique, the optimum concentration of the IgG preparation should always be established by titration.
Clone: Polyclonal

Purification: Purified

Immunogen: A pool of purified Bence Jones kappa proteins isolated from human urine. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Handling

Reconstitution: It is reconstituted by adding 1 mL sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20 °C.Purified hyperimmune rabbit IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline ( pH 7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity. It is reconstituted by adding 1 mL sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20 °C.

Buffer: Purified hyperimmune rabbit IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline ( pH 7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity.

Preservative: Without preservative

Storage: RT,4 °C,-20 °C

Storage Comment: The lyophilized product is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C, prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Prior to use, an aliquot is thawed slowly at ambient temperature, spun down again and used to prepare working dilutions by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the product.
