Immunogen
|
Purified normal IgG isolated from pooled goat serum. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Isotype
|
IgG
|
Specificity
|
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc and Fab subunits of both subclasses, IgG1 and IgG2. It includes a certain degree of reactivity with other immunoglobulins via the common Fab portion. In immunoelectrophoresis against goat serum a single characteristic precipitin line with a spur is usually obtained, representing primarily IgG2. If the IgG1 level in the sample approaches the concentration of IgG2, it may become visible as a second precipitin line.
|
Characteristics
|
Total protein and IgG concentration in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled donkey serum. Antibody titre: Precipitin titre not less than 1:128 when tested against normal goat serum in agar block titration.
|
Purification
|
Delipidated, heat inactivated lyophilized stable whole serum. No adsorption required.
