Overview
-
Purified hyperimmune sheep IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the activity of the antiserum. It is reconstituted by adding 1 ml sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20°C.

Background
The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to alpha-foetoprotein. In immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against amniotic fluid, rat hepatoma sera and purified alpha-foetoprotein an single characteristic precipitin line is obtained. No reaction is obtained with rat sera of different strains. As unlabelled primary or secondary antibody reagent for the indirect detection of alpha foetoprotein in tissues and body fluids in immunofluorescence and immunoenzyme methods; for the production of immunoconjugates with a selected marker; to prepare insoluble immunoaffinity adsorbents by coupling to an artificial carrier; as catching or detection reagent in non-isotopic methodology and solid phase immunochemistry (e.g. ELISA, Western blotting). When applied in any cytochemical or histochemical procedure or solids phase coupling technique, the optimum concentration of the IgG preparation should always be established by titration.
