Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C. 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.

Recommended Assay Procedures

ELISA Detection: The biotinylated XMG1.2 clone is useful as a detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA for measuring mouse IFN-γ protein levels. Biotinylated XMG1.2 antibody can be paired with the purified R4-6A2 antibody (Cat. No. 551216) or purified AN-18 (Cat. No. 551309) as the capture antibody, with recombinant mouse IFN-γ protein (Cat. No. 554587) as the standard. The biotinylated XMG1.2 antibody preparation should be titrated from 0.5-2.0 µg/ml to determine its optimal concentration for ELISA detection. To obtain linear standard curves, doubling dilutions of IFN-γ protein ranging from ~4000 to 30 pg/ml are recommended for inclusion in each ELISA plate. Note: This ELISA pair is recommended primarily for measuring cytokine from experimental cell culture systems.  For testing IFN-γ in serum or plasma, our BD OptEIA™ Set (Cat. No. 551866) or BD OptEIA™ Kit (Cat. No. 558258) are recommended.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. 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.

XMG1.2

The XMG1.2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to mouse interferon-γ (IFN-γ) protein. IFN-γ is a pleiotropic cytokine, of approximately 15-17 kDa, involved in the regulation of inflammatory and immune responses. It plays an important role in activation, growth, and differentiation of T and B lymphocytes, macrophages, NK cells and other non-hematopoietic cell types. IFN-γ production is associated with the Th1 cell differentiation. The purified form of this antibody has been reported to be a neutralizing antibody.

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.
