MOUSE ANTI-RABBIT LIGHT CHAIN ANTIBODY

General description

Antibody molecules typically comprise two immunoglobulin light chains covalently bound to a pair of heavy chains. Immunoglobulin light chains occur in two types, designated by the Greek letters kappa and lambda. Kappa and gamma light chains are approximately 250 amino acids in length with an average mass of about 25 kDa. The ratio of kappa to lambda found in the immunoglobulin population varies by species.

Specificity

Minimal cross-reaction with bovine, goat, Armenian hamster, horse, human, mouse, rat, and sheep.

The antibody reacts strongly with native primary antibodies primarily with kappa light chains. It is not suitable for detecting lambda light chains. The antibody does not react with the heavy chain of rabbit IgG. The antibody has been tested by ELISA and adsorbed to ensure minimal cross-reaction with bovine, goat, Armenian hamster, horse, human, mouse, rat, and sheep immunoglobulins.
