Human IgM whole molecule Allophycocyanin conjugated
- control reagent
- Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blotting
Immunoglobulin M is the largest antibody isotype and the first to be secrected against an initial exposure to antigen. IgM is predominantly produced in the spleen. Formed from covalently linking 5 immunoglobulins together, the approixmate molecular weight of IgM is 900kDa and possesses 10 binding sites (though due to the size of most antigens, not all sites are capable of binding at once). Due to this large size, IgM is typically isolated to the serum.
Human IgM whole molecule Allophycocyanin conjugated can be utilized as a control reagent in Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blotting. Researchers should determine optimal titers for applications that are not stated.
