Anti-human IgG mAb (MT145), unconjugated

Product specifications

Intended use

This monoclonal antibody enables specific detection of human IgG4 in immunoassays such as ELISpot and ELISA.

Serum/Plasma samples

Recommendation

MTG42 is recommended as detection mAb in ELISpot in combination with capture mAb MT145 (product code 3850-1) or with coated antigen. The antibody is also suitable for antigen-specific ELISA.

Analyte information

IgG4

Analyte description	IgG (Immunoglobulin G) is the most abundant Ig isotype in serum, making up approximately 80% of all serum Immunoglobulins. In humans, there are four subclasses of IgG, with the highest serum concentrations of IgG1 followed by IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4. IgG4 cannot activate the complement system but binds well to Fc receptors.
Alternative names	Immunoglobulin G4, IgG4
Cell type	B cell
Gene ID	3503
