Immunoglobulin M (IgM) (class specific) (clone NI 179), anti-human

Background:
The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to an isotype specific determinant on the IgM molecule as tested in ELISA, immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation and indirect immunoperoxidase staining of cytoplasmic Ig. To identify the presence of IgM in human serum, other body fluids, cell and tissue substrates and to determine its concentration in techniques as radio immuno assay, ELISA, indirect immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence staining of cytoplasmic IgM immunoblotting. The optimum working dilution is an assay-related characteristic and should always be determined by titration. For histochemical use optimum dilutions are mostly from 1:50 to 1:200. These data should be interpreted as general recommendations only.

Clone: NI 179

Isotype: Mouse IgG1

Source: Highly purified monoclonal IgM isolated from pooled human serum

Reactivity: human. The anti-serum does not react with any other component of the human Ig system or any other human plasma protein as tested. This anti-serum has not been tested for cross-reactivity with other species.

Specificity: Purified monoclonal Mouse antibody to Human IgM, isotype specific.

Form: Purified mouse IgG1 kappa lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.2). IgG concentration is 0.4 mg/ml. No foreign proteins added

Applications: Indirect immunofluorescence, ELISA

Storage: Store at 4C, or in small aliquots at -20C.
