Alpha-2 macroglobulin ids the major protein in the alpha-2 region of mouse serum after separation by electrophoresis.
It is a large polymer and a strong antigen.
It forms about one-third in the total of the alpha-2 globulins.
The protein is isolated by ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration and preparative starch block electrophoresis.
In the purification of alpha-2 macroglobulin the activation of kallikrein is avoided, since it forms an irreversible bond with alpha-2 macroglobulin, thus contaminating the final immunogen.
Applications:Suitable for use in IEP and RID.
Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilutions: IEP: Use 2ul serum against 120ul antiserumRID: Use a rosette arrangement with 10ul antiserum in 3 mm diameter centre well and 2ul serum samples (neat and serially diluted) in 2 mm diameter peripheral wells.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

仕様
Size:1ml
Host:rat
Source Antibody:mouse
Grade:Serum
Purity:Serum
Form:Supplied as a lyophilized powder. Reconstitute with 1ml sterile ddH2O. Dilute further with PBS, pH 7.2.
Specificity:Recognizes mouse alpha2 Macroglobulin. A single precipitin line is obtained with normal serum which shows a reaction of identity with the precipitin line with purified alpha-2 macroglobulin. Immunoaffinity adsorbed using insolubilized antigens as required, to eliminate antibodies reacting with other serum proteins. Does not crossreact with bovine, feline, chicken, canine,ferret, goat, guinea pig, hamster, equine, human, monkey, rabbit, sheep, porcine or turkey.
Isotype:IgG
Calc Crossreactivity:Mo
Immunogen:Purified mouse alpha-2 Macroglobulin. The activation of lakkikrein is avoided
