Mouse IgG2b Negative Control, clone GC198, FITC conjugate

Protein I preparation from Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

FITC conjugated mouse IgG2b is a monoclonal antibody intended for use as a negative control in flow cytometry. Its use enables an estimation of non-specific binding of mouse monoclonal antibodies to cell surface components in peripheral blood and tissue.

SUGGESTED USAGE

Flow cytometry - use 10 μl direct from the vial per 100 μl of whole blood, or 1 x 10E6 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in 100 μl buffer.

Mouse IgG2b Negative Control Monoclonal Antibody validated for use in Flow Cytometry & Immunofluorescence.

This antibody reacts with the outer membrane protein of some strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. No reaction with human cell surface or plasma components has been observed. However, some binding to Fc receptors may occur.

Purified immunoglobulin. Fluorescein conjugated, ready to use. The antibody is supplied in 1.0ml phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 0.2% bovine serum albumin and 0.1% sodium azide. The characteristics of each lot are tested by electrophoresis and flow cytometry.

Store at 2 to 8oC, for up to 6 months. DO NOT FREEZE. Protect from light.

WARNING

The monoclonal reagent solution contains 0.1% sodium azide as a preservative. Due to potential hazards arising from the build up of this material in pipes, spent reagent should be disposed of with liberal volumes of water.
