Clone: Polyclonal
Background: The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to mouse MUP. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against normal mouse plasma characteristic precipitin lines are obtained which show a reaction of identity with the precipitin lines obtained with purified immunogen. No reaction is obtained with any other plasma protein components or serum. In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single or double radial immunodiffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) and electroimmunodiffusion (Laurell) to identify or measure the concentration of MUP. Proteins isolated from urine, such as Bence Jones proteins, may contain MUP as an impurity. This antiserum can be used to identify the impurity and also to remove it by immunoaffinity adsorption. It has not been tested for use in nephelometry, ELISA or immunohistology, but this does not exclude such use if proper controls are included.
Source: The MUP is a sex related complex with a pre-albumin mobility in gel electrophoresis. Concentrations in male mice are between 50 to 150 μg/ml, in female mice 10 to 20 μg/ml. The complex is also detectable in serum, however concentrations are about 200 to 400 times lower. Variations in the composition of the complex are genetically determined. Purified mouse major urinary proteins are isolated from pooled normal urine. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity: Precipitating polyclonal Goat antiSerum to Mouse major urinary proteins.
Formulation: Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized, stable whole antiserum No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity. Total protein and IgG concentrations in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled normal goat serum. No foreign
