Overview
Host Type: Caprine (Goat)
Antibody Clonality: Polyclonal
Regulatory Status: RUO
Storage:
The lyophilized antiserum is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C; prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Dilutions may be prepared by adding phosphate buffered saline (PBS pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the antiserum. Diluted antiserum should be stored at +4°C not refrozen and preferably used the same day.
Further Information
Applications Description:
Precipitation assays. In immunoelectrophoresis use 2 ul serum or equivalent against 120 ul antiserum. In double radial immunodiffusion use a rosette arrangement with 10 ul antiserum in 3 mm diameter centre well and 2 ul serum samples (neat and serially diluted) in 2 mm diameter peripheral wells.
Background:
Tested in immunoelectrophoresis, double radial immunodiffusion and ELISA against a panel of appropriate secretions and purified Ig isotypes. The antiserum reacts with both bound secretory component (secretory IgA) and with the free SC present in human secretions. In immunoelectrophoresis against human milk, using a high electroendosmosis agar plate, free SC is precipitated in the alph-2 region. The antiserum does not react with other molecular forms of IgA, or with any other secretory or plasma protein. In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single and double radial immunodiffusion to identify the presence secretory component in human serum or other body fluids and to determine its concentration.

Source:
Secretory component is present in human secretions bound to secretory IgA (sIgA) and in free form. Secretory IgA (sIgA) functions as a dimer or polymer and accounts for almost all specific mucosal antibody activity. A molecule of sIgA is made up of two molecules of IgA, one J chain and one SC (MW 65,000). The dimer IgA is transported into secretions by its binding to the SC on the epithelial cells. Under normal conditions, sIgA contains both subclasses IgA1 and IgA2, since both are capable of binding SC. SC also has an affinity for polymeric IgM. Purified free human secretory component isolated from pooled milk is used for immunization.
Freund?s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
