Sheep anti Rat alpha foetoprotein

• Catalog Number: orb20675
• Category: Antibodies
• Description: Purified IgG fraction of polyclonal sheep antiserum to rat alpha foetoprotein. Purified rat alpha-foetoprotein is isolated from pooled amniotic fluid and hepatoma serum using a proprietary multiple step method. Several foetoproteins have been demonstrated in rat foetal serum and amniotic fluid. One of the best studied is the alpha-foetoprotein. It can be easily identified immunochemically because of its distinct antigenicity. In electrophoresis its relative mobility is between the albumin and the alpha 1 globulin fractions. Its molecular weight is 65,000, the carbohydrate content is relatively low. Freund's complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
• Species/Host: Sheep
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Form/Appearance: Purified hyperimmune sheep IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2). No preservative added, as it may interfere with the activity of the antiserum.
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• Hazard Information: This product is intended FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY, and FOR TESTS IN VITRO, not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures involving humans or animals.
