BackgroundThe reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc and Fab subunits of the IgG molecule. It includes a certain degree of reactivity with other immunoglobulins via the common Fab portion. It does not react with any non-Ig protein in mouse serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis. Potential uses: In immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion to identify the presence of IgG; as secondary antibody to precipitate the immunoglobulin in mouse serum; as bridging reagent in a peroxidase antiperoxidase technique using M/PAP; to prepare an immunoadsorbent for the production of Ig-free mouse serum, plasma or non-Ig preparations.

SourcePurified normal IgG isolated from pooled mouse serum. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

ProductNeat liquid antiserum containing 0.05% sodium azide as a preservative.

Formulation: Neat liquid antiserum containing 0.05% sodium azide as a preservative.

SpecificityPrecipitating polyclonal swine antiserum to mouse IgG, heavy and light chains.

Species Reactivity: Inter-species cross-reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to immunoglobulins, since Ig of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Cross-reactivity of this antiserum has not been tested in detail.

ApplicationsPrecipitation assays. In immunoelectrophoresis use 2 μl or equivalent against 120 μl antiserum. In double radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony) use a rosette arrangement with 10 μl antiserum in a 3 mm diameter centre well and 2 μl serum samples (neat and diluted) in 2 mm diameter peripheral wells.

Storage 4°C short term, - 20°C long term.
