Flow Cytometry Product Notes: Test Sizes: To accommodate multicolor flow cytometry, eBioscience is in the process of reducing test size volumes from 20 µL to 5 µL. Please check your antibody vial for the recommended test size. Fluorochrome Replacements: eBioscience is in the process of replacing all Alexa Fluor® 647 conjugated products with eFluor® 660 conjugated products.
Description
This antibody will recognize the light chains of other rat immunoglobulins. Reactions to non-immunoglobulin rat serum proteins have not been detected.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This polyclonal antibody has been reported for use in detection of purified rat immunoglobulins (IgG) in flow cytometry.
Applications Tested
FITC Anti-Rat IgG has been tested by flow cytometric analysis to detect purified rat monoclonal antibodies. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 105 to 108 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. In addition, it has been adsorbed and tested by ELISA to ensure minimal cross reaction to human, bovine, horse, mouse and rabbit serum proteins, but may cross-react with immunoglobulins from other species.
