Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  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.
  4. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.

Poly1271

This polyclonal antibody reacts with whole molecule rat IgG (heavy and light chains) and may also react with the light chains of other rat immunoglobulins.  The antibody has been reported to be reactive in ELISA with rat IgG, IgM, and IgA.  In addition, some cross-reactivity with mouse IgG, some hamster Ig and minimal cross-reactivity with human Ig has been reported.   Investigators experiencing cross-reactivity with rat IgM may wish to consider using the following alternatives:  Biotin Mouse Anti-Rat IgM (Cat. No. 553886) or Biotin Mouse Anti-Rat Ig, κ light chain (Cat. No. 553871).  Minimal cross-reaction to mouse, human, bovine, horse and rabbit non-immunoglobulin serum proteins are expected.  

For immunohistochemical staining (IHC) of acetone-fixed frozen and paraffin-embedded sections, Biotin Goat Anti-Rat Ig (Cat. No. 559286) is recommended.  When using rat IgG2b primary antibodies, Biotin Mouse Anti-Rat IgG2b (Cat. No. 550327) is also available as an alternate. When using rat IgM primary antibodies, Mouse Anti-Rat/Hamster Ig κ light chain (Cat. No. 550336) or Mouse Anti-Rat IgM (Cat. No. 550330) are also available alternatives.

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.
