Preparation And Storage

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with biotin under optimum conditions, and unreacted biotin was removed. Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

5.7

This antibody reacts specifically with mouse IgG2a of Igh-C [b] haplotype (e.g., C57BL/6, C57BL/10, NOD, SJL). It has been reported not to react with IgG2a of the a, c, d, e, f, g, h, j, n, o, or p haplotypes (e.g., A, AKR, BALB/c, C3H/He, C58, CBA, DBA/1, DBA/2, NZB, SWR). Molecular genetic analyses suggest that the Igh-1 [b] allele, which encodes IgG2a [b], is derived from a locus found in several wild mouse subspecies, but not domestic mice, which encodes the IgG2c isotype.

Biotin
Biotin is a ubiquitous co-factor (also known as Vitamin B7) that has many properties that make it extremely useful for molecular biology. Biotin has an extremely high affinity for the Avidin family of proteins (Kd = 10-15 M), making it the perfect tool to link two molecules. Biotin labeled antibodies can be combined with any number of Avidin-conjugated probes in order to customize an assay to a particular need. This is especially useful in the case of magnetic cell separation using streptavidin/magnetic bead conjugates, or in the case of flow cytometry using streptavidin/fluorophore conjugates.
