Specificity

By immunoelectrophoresis and ELISA this antibody reacts specifically with rat IgG. Cross reactivity with IgA and IgM is negligible. No antibody was detected against non-immunoglobulin serum proteins. Less than 1% cross reactivity to human and mouse IgG was detected. This antibody may cross react with IgG from other species.

Purification notes

Antiserum was solid phase adsorbed to ensure class specificity. Antiserum was cross adsorbed using human and mouse immunosorbents to remove cross reactive antibodies. The antibody to rat IgG was isolated by affinity chromatography using antigen coupled to agarose beads. F(ab')2 fragments were generated using a pepsin digestion. Fc fragments and whole IgG molecules have been removed.

The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (Anti-Tubulin antibody [YL1/2] - Loading Control ab6160, 2µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was ab150161 Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rat IgG (Fc) used at 2µg/ml for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
