Swine anti Human Ig kappa light chains (free and bound)

The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the surface and hidden determinants of Ig kappa light chain. In immunoelectrophoresis this antiserum is reacting with polyclonal and monoclonal immunoglobulins of the kappa type, Bence Jones proteins as well as free light chains of the kappa type. This antiserum does not react with any other protein of human serum or plasma. This IgG preparation is intended for use in precipitating (gel diffusion) and non-precipitating antibody-binding immunoassays (indirect immunofluorescence, enzyme immunoassays for the detection of polyclonal immunoglobulins, purified monoclonal immunoglobulins of the kappa type as well as free light chains or Bence Jones proteins of the kappa type in serum or other body fluids.; to prepare an insoluble immunoaffinity adsorbent or a solid phase catching antibody reagent by coupling to an artificial carrier; for labeling with a marker of the user’s own choice. 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.
