Merck, A3316-5ML, Anti-Human IgG (Fc Specific)−Agarose antibody produced in goat

Human IgGs are glycoprotein antibodies that contain two equivalent light chains and a pair of identical heavy chains. IgGs have four distinct isoforms, ranging from IgG1 to IgG4. These antibodies regulate immunological responses to allergy and pathogenic infections. IgGs have also been implicated in complement fixation and autoimmune disorders. Goat Anti-Human IgG (Fc Specific)-Agarose antibody is specific for the Fc fragment of human IgG when tested against purified human IgA, IgG, IgM, Fc, and kappa and lambda light chains. No reactivity with mouse or rat IgG is seen by Ouchterlony Double Diffusion (ODD), prior to agarose bead coupling.
