Description: As tested in immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion against pooled normal rabbit serum and purified IgG fractions and light chain preparations, the antiserum reacts with determinants exposed on the surface (SD) and the Fab portion of all intact immunoglobulins, with Fab or F(ab')2 subunits, and with free light chains of both types; also with determinants exposed only on free light chains but hidden in the intact immunoglobulin molecule (HD or hidden determinants) or Bence Jones proteins. This antiserum is not kappa or lambda chain specific. It does not react with any non-Ig protein in rabbit serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion. As precipitating antiserum in a variety of immunodiffusion techniques including immunoelectrophoresis and double and single radial immunodiffusion Mancini, Ouchterlony). It has not been tested for use in nephelometry, ELISA or immunochemistry, but this does not exclude such use if proper controls are included.
Polyclonal
The lyophilized antiserum is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C; prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Working dilutions are prepared by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4°C, not refrozen, and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage, this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the product.
Precipitation assays. In immunoelectrophoresis use 2 µl or equivalent against 120 µl antiserum. In double radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony) use a rosette arrangement with 10 µl antiserum in a 3 mm diameter centre well and 2 µl serum samples (neat and serially diluted) in 2 mm diameter peripheral wells. In single immunodiffusion, use 1% antiserum in agar gel to establish a standard curve.
