Clone: Polyclonal
Background: The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc subunit of the IgD molecule, which expresses strict (class) specificity. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial in immunodiffusion using various antiserum concentrations against human serum, a single precipitin line has been obtained which shows a reaction of identity with the precipitin lines obtained with the purified IgD used as immunogens. It does not react with IgG including all subclasses, IgG/Fab fragments, IgM and IgA or any non-Ig protein in human serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. The antiserum also react with membrane-bound IgD in peripheral blood cells as tested by immunofluorescence microscopy. In immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical staining for the detection of IgD at the cellular and subcellular level by staining of appropriately treated cell and tissue substrates; to identify and measure IgD in human serum or other body fluids. This immunoconjugate is not pre-diluted. The optimum working dilution of each conjugate should be established by titration before being used. Excess labelled antibody must be avoided because it may cause high unspecific background staining and interfere with the specific signal.
Source: Pools of purified homogenous IgD isolated from human serum. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity: Specificity Reference Reagent. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated IgG fraction of polyclonal Goat antiSerum to Human IgD Fc specific.
Formulation: FITC-coupled purified hyperimmune goat IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity.
