Invitrogen™ Mouse anti-Rat IgG2a (Heavy chain) Secondary Antibody

Description

Mouse anti Rat IgG2a heavy chain antibody, clone MARG2a-1 recognizes the rat gamma 2a immunoglobulin heavy chain, and does not cross-react with other immunoglobulin classes or subclasses.

Anti-Rat secondary antibodies are affinity-purified antibodies with well-characterized specificity for rat 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.
