Product specifications

Intended use

This monoclonal antibody enables specific detection of mouse IgG2a in immunoassays such as ELISpot and ELISA.

Serum/Plasma samples

Recommendation

MG2a is recommended as capture mAb in ELISpot (detection with biotinylated antigen). The antibody is also suitable for antigen-specific ELISA.

IgG2a

Analyte description

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the most abundant Ig isotype in serum, making up approximately 80% of all serum Immunoglobulins. In mice, the IgG subclasses are defined IgG1, IgG2a/c, IgG2b, and IgG3.  The IgG2a allele is expressed in e.g., Balb/c mice.
