Goat F(ab')2 anti-human IgA
Capture antibody - IgAα chain specific
Goat F(ab’)2 anti-human IgA was generated from antibodies isolated from antisera of goats hyperimmunized with human IgA paraproteins. Antibodies were purified by affinity chromatography and digested by pepsin to remove the Fc portion, to avoid non-specific binding through Fc receptors. Goat F(ab’)2 anti-human IgA allows the capture of the heavy chain of human IgA antibodies.
Source: Pepsin digest of goat anti-human IgA
Cross Absorption: Human IgM, IgG and IgD
Purification: Gel filtration chromatography of pepsin digested antibody
Specificity: Reacts with the heavy chain of human IgA as demonstrated by ELISA and flow cytometry. May also react with IgA from other species.
