Target: Rabbit
Host: Mouse
Antibody Format: IgG Fraction Monoclonal
Specificity: IgG, light chain specific
Minimal Cross Reactivity: Bovine, Goat, Armenian Hamster, Horse, Human, Mouse, Rat, Sheep Immunoglobulins
Conjugate: Horseradish Peroxidase
Product Category: Anti‑Light Chain-Specific Antibodies for Western Blotting after IP
Clonality: Monoclonal
RRID: AB_2339149

Information

Based on antigen-binding assay, Western blotting, and/or ELISA, the antibody reacts with the light chains on rabbit IgG and with those common to other rabbit immunoglobulins. The antibody does not react with the heavy chain of rabbit IgG. The antibody has been tested by ELISA to ensure minimal cross-reaction with bovine, goat, armenian hamster, horse, human, mouse, rat and sheep immunoglobulins, but it may cross-react with immunoglobulins from other species.

Usage

Physical State: Freeze-dried solid

Storage and Rehydration: Store freeze-dried solid at 2-8°C. Rehydrate with the indicated volume of dH2O (see product specification sheet) and centrifuge if not clear. Prepare working dilution on day of use. Product is stable for about 6 weeks at 2-8°C as an undiluted liquid.
Extended Storage after Rehydration: Aliquot and freeze at -70°C or below. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Alternatively, add an equal volume of glycerol (ACS grade or better) for a final concentration of 50%, and store at -20°C as a liquid.
Expiration date: one year from date of rehydration. The expiration date may be extended if test results are acceptable for the intended use.

Buffer: 0.01M Sodium Phosphate, 0.25M NaCl, pH 7.6
Stabilizer: 15 mg/ml Bovine Serum Albumin (IgG-Free, Protease-Free)
Preservative: None (Warning: Use of sodium azide as a preservative will substantially inhibit the enzyme activity of horseradish peroxidase.)

Suggested Working Concentration or Dilution Range:

1:500 - 1:5,000 for immunohisto/cytochemistry
1:5,000 - 1:100,000 for ELISA and Western blotting with chromogenic substrates
1:10,000 - 1:200,000 for Western blotting with ECL substrates

Dilution factors are presented in the form of a range because the optimal dilution is a function of many factors, such as antigen density, permeability, etc. The actual dilution used must be determined empirically.

Conjugate

Horseradish Peroxidase

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugates are prepared by a modified Nakane and Kawaoi procedure (J. Histochem. Cytochem. 1974. 22, 1084). Peroxidase conjugates are commonly used for immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and ELISA. Affinity-purified anti-horseradish peroxidase and conjugates are available for detection of horseradish peroxidase antigen or for signal amplification of HRP-containing reagents. For immunostaining of mammalian cells, an advantage of using anti-horseradish peroxidase is reduced background, since the antibody does not recognize the endogenous peroxidase-like enzymes found in those cells.
