Isotype matched controls are useful in flow cytometry to determine a gross estimate of non-specific binding that may be observed with a specific antibody of interest.
In general, an isotype control should be of the same species and isotype as the antibody of interest, used at the same concentration, and conjugated to the same fluorophore.
Applications:The reagent is intended as an isotype control to establish the amount of non-specific antibody binding.
For your particular experiment, use the same concentration of this control antibody as the recommended working concentration of the antigen-specific antibody.
Also, when working with prediluted antibodies, dilute the isotype control to the same concentration as is the concentration of the antigen-specific antibody in the prediluted antibody solution you are using.
If under particular experimental conditions the background signal of the isotype control is too high (usually when working concentrations of used antibodies are above 10ug/ml of incubation mixture), change the conditions of your experiment to reduce the background.
Recommended Dilutions:Flow Cytometry: 10ug/mlOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
