Secondary Antibodies
Anti-mouse IgG (H+L), F(ab')2 Fragment (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) #4408
Specificity / Sensitivity
F(ab')2 fragments are prepared from goat antibodies that have been adsorbed against human IgG and human serum.
Flow Cytometry
Flow cytometric analysis of untreated Jurkat cells using Akt (5G3) Mouse mAb #2966 detected with Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), F(ab')2 Fragment (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) (green) compared to a nonspecific negative control antibody (red).
IF-IC
Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of mouse embryonic stem cells growing on mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) feeder cells using SSEA1 (MC480) Mouse mAb #4744 detected with anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), F(ab')2 Fragment (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) (green). Actin filaments have been labeled with DY-554 phalloidin (red). Blue pseudocolor = DRAQ5® #4084 (fluorescent DNA dye).
High Content Screening
High content analysis of A439 cells exposed to varying concentrations of caffeine for 30 min prior to and 1.5 hr following a 100 mJ UV-treatment. With increasing concentrations of caffeine, a significant decrease (~2.5 fold) in phospho-p53 signal as compared to the UV-treated control was observed. When using phospho-p53 as a measurement, the IC50 of this compound was 2.95 mM. Data was generated on the Acumen® HCS platform using Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L), F(ab')2 Fragment (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate).
Description
Anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) F(ab')2 Fragment antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye under optimal conditions and formulated at 2 mg/ml. This F(ab')2 fragment results in less non-specific binding to cells through Fc receptors.
Directions for Use
The optimal dilution of the anti-species antibody should be determined for each application. However, a final dilution of 1:1000 should yield acceptable results for most immunofluorescent applications.
Applications
This product has been optimized for use as a secondary antibody in immunofluorescent applications.
Background
Fluorescent anti-species IgG conjugates are ideal for flow cytometry and immunofluorescence. Cell Signaling Technology’s strict quality control procedures assure that each conjugate provides optimal specificity and fluorescence.
