Invitrogen™ Goat anti-Human IgM (Heavy chain) Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, HRP

Description

Rehydrate with 1.1 mL of deionized water and let stand 30 minutes at room temperature to dissolve. (Product has been overfilled to ensure complete recovery.) Centrifuge to remove any particulates. Prepare fresh working dilution daily. Store lyophilized material at 2-8 °C. For long term storage after reconstitution, dilute with 50% glycerol and store at -20 °C as a liquid. Based on Immunoelectrophoresis, no reactivity is observed to: non-immunoglobulin human serum proteins, light chains on all human immunoglobulins, human IgA or IgG.

Anti-Human secondary antibodies are affinity-purified antibodies with well-characterized specificity for human immunoglobulins and are useful in the detection, sorting or purification of its specified target. Secondary antibodies offer increased versatility enabling users to use many detection systems (e.g. HRP, AP, fluorescence). They can also provide greater sensitivity through signal amplification as multiple secondary antibodies can bind to a single primary antibody. Most commonly, secondary antibodies are generated by immunizing the host animal with a pooled population of immunoglobulins from the target species and can be further purified and modified (i.e. immunoaffinity chromatography, antibody fragmentation, label conjugation, etc.) to generate highly specific reagents.
