概述 >

Description:
Anti-Human IgM, AlpSdAbs® VHH is designed for detecting human IgM specifically. Anti-Human IgM, AlpSdAbs® VHH is monovalent, recombinant single domain antibody derived from the variable regions of heavy chain of Alpaca pacous. Based on immunoelectrophoresis and/or ELISA, Anti-Human IgM, AlpSdAbs® VHH reacts with human IgM selectively, no reactivity with human IgG, IgD, IgA, IgE.

Conjugate: Unconjugated(6*his tag and one cys were added at the C terminal of the VHH)
Specificity: Human IgM
Cross-Reactivity: Does not bind to human IgG, IgD, IgA, IgE
Purity: Recombinant Expression and Affinity purified
Concentration: 1mg/ml
Formation: Liquid, 10mM PBS(pH 7.5), 0.05% sucrose, 0.1% trehalose, 0.01% proclin300

Background:
In mammals, antibodies are classified into five main classes or isotypes – IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG and IgM. They are classed according to the heavy chain they contain – alpha, delta, epsilon, gamma or mu respectively. IgM normally constitutes about 10% of serum immunoglobulins. IgM antibody is prominent in early immune responses to most antigens and is largely confined to plasma due to it's large size. Monomeric IgM is expressed as a membrane bound antibody on the surface of B cells and as a pentamer when secreted by plasma cells. IgM measurement yields information about the body's immediate resistance and response to infection as well as information related to specific diseases. Decreased levels are associated with immune deficiency states, hereditary deficiencies, and myeloma. Increased levels can be associated with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, chronic infection and hepatocellular disease.
VHH are single-domain antibodies derived from the variable regions of heavy chain of Camelidae immunoglobulin. The size of VHH is extremely small(<15KDa) compared to other forms of antibody fragment, which significantly increase the permeability of VHH. Thus VHH is considered of great value for research, diagnostics and therapeutics.

Dilution factors are presented in the form of a range because the optimal dilution is a function of many factors, such as antigen density, permeability, etc. The actual dilution used must be determined empirically.
