Dear Supplier,



Please see customers request below:

Kindly let me know if the Rat IgG abcam ab37361 is specific to Ig2b. We need the antibody as a control. We will perform IP injections to mice and check to see depletion for some other antibodies. The rat IgG2b antibody will be used as a control.



Please let me know if you require any further information.





Thanks

Answer

Thank you for your inquiry.

I am sorry to confirm that ab37361 is not aa IgG2b antibody but a mixture of rat IgGs of all isotypes.

I can suggest to following antibody for your customer's experiments:

ab18536 (Rat IgG2b, kappa monoclonal [RTK4530] - BSA/Azide free)

It is of the IgG2b isotype and is supplied in PBS. Please review the datasheet for more information:
