Short Description

Tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate-conjugated purified monoclonal mouse antibody to human Ig kappa chain, free and bound. To identify the light chain type of immunoglobulins or free light chains in human serum, other body fluids, cell and tissue substrates and to determine its concentration in techniques as immunofluorescence staining and ELISA and immunoblotting using an indirect technique with monoclonal anti TRITC labelled with peroxidase. The optimum working dilution is an assay-related characteristic and should always be determined by titration. For histochemical use optimum dilutions are mostly from 1:20 to 1:200; in ELISA from 1:500 upwards; in Western blotting from 1:1,000 upwards. These data should be interpreted as general recommendations only.

Antibody Clonality

Monoclonal

Application Notes

The antibody does not react with any other component of the human immunoglobulin system or any other human plasma protein as tested. This antiserum has not been tested for cross-reactivity with other species.Conjugation Notes: A proprietary technique for the binding to TRITC is used, followed by several purification steps to remove free reactants and protein aggregates. After each step activity and specificity are tested in a variety of techniques. The conjugate is lyophilized to assure stability and long shelf life. Tetramethylrhodamine isothiocyanate isomer R. It has an orange-red fluorescence. Excitation: 554 nm, emission: 573 nm. To avoid nonspecific background staining, specially synthesized and exceptionally pure crystalline isomer R has been used instead of the usual racemic mixture. Although its fluorescence efficiency is less than of FITC, TRITC conjugates have the advantage of significantly less photo bleaching.

Storage Note

The lyophilized product is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C; prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Avoid repeated thawing and freezing. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation and will not affect the performance of the product. Diluted solutions should be stored at +4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day.
