Immunogen
|
Highly purified IgG, including all subclasses, and pools of homogenous IgA and IgM isolated from rat serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Isotype
|
IgG
|
Specificity
|
The defined antibody specificity is directed to the major isotypes of the rat immunoglobulin system (classes, subclasses and L chain types) including antibody to common determinants, to class and subclass-specific determinants, and to the surface determinants of the common Fab portion as tested against as tested in immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony).
|
Characteristics
|
Purified IgG fraction of polyclonal goat antiserum to rat immunoglobulins IgG, IgA, IgM, heavy and light chains
|
Purification
|
Immunoaffinity adsorbed using insolubilized Ig-depleted rat serum as required, to eliminate antibodies reacting with other serum proteins. The use of insolubilized adsorption antigens prevents the presence of excess adsorbent protein or immune complexes in the antiserum. Hyperimmune antisera with strong precipitating activity are selected for fractionation by salt-precipitation and purification of the IgG fraction by DEAE-chromatography.
