Rat IgG1 kappa Isotype Control (eBRG1), Alexa Fluor™ 700, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

• Description: The monoclonal rat IgG1, kappa is useful as an isotype control immunoglobulin
• Applications Reported: This eBRG1 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis
• Applications Tested: This eBRG1 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes and normal human peripheral blood cells
• This should be used at the same concentration as experimental antibody
• Alexa Fluor® 700 emits at 723 nm and can be excited with the red laser (633 nm)
• Most instruments will require a 685 LP mirror and 710/20 filter
• Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome
• Excitation: 633-647 nm; Emission: 723 nm; Laser: Red Laser
• Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered
• Rat IgG1 is a subclass of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies that are commonly used in research and diagnostics
• These antibodies are produced by rats in response to an antigen and can be purified from serum or hybridoma cell culture supernatants
• Rat IgG1 is often used as a negative control in experiments, as it does not bind to many mammalian antigens
• It is also used in immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, and western blotting to detect specific antigens
• Gene targeting is a powerful tool used to manipulate the rat genome and generate animal models for studying human diseases
• With gene targeting, specific genes can be knocked out, inserted, or modified to investigate their role in disease pathogenesis.
