Rabbit IgG Isotype Control (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) #4340

Applications Reactivity Source
F Rabbit

Applications Key:  F=Flow Cytometry
Reactivity Key:
Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Source / Purification

The purified antibody is not directed against any known antigen. It was isolated from naive rabbit sera and prepared by affinity chromotography.

Flow cytometric analysis of Jurkat cells, using Rabbit IgG Isotype Control (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) (red) compared toPhospho-Stat3 (Tyr705) (D3A7) Rabbit mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) #4323 untreated (blue) or IFN-alpha treated (green).

Description

Rabbit IgG was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye under optimal conditions, and tested in-house for direct flow cytometric analysis of human and mouse cells.

Background

Isotype control antibodies are used to estimate the non-specific binding of target primary antibodies due to Fc receptor binding or other protein-protein interactions. An isotype control antibody should have the same immunoglobulin type as the test antibody.Important Note on Use: This control antibody must be diluted to the same concentration (not dilution) as the specific antibody in analysis. Higher background fluorescence may result if excessive amounts of rabbit IgG isotype control are used. Do not use this antibody at 1:10 dilution in the same way as recommended for other CST Alexa Fluor® conjugated antibodies.
