General description

IgA antibody is secretory antibody and is present abundantly in mucous linings of gastrointestinal, respiratory and genitourinary tracts, tears and saliva. Thus secretory IgA contributes to the humoral defense mechanism against the pathogens on mucosal surfaces
Anti-Human IgA (α-chain specific)-FITC antibody is specific for α chain of human IgA. Goat Anti-Human IgA is conjugated to Fluorescein Isothiocyanate (FITC), Isomer I.

Immunogen

Purified human IgA

Application

Anti-Human IgA (α-chain specific)-FITC antibody may be used for direct immunofluorescence at a working antibody dilution of 1:16 to 1:32. A dilution of 1:100 was used for immunohistochemistry of cryosections of human sural nerves.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 1% BSA and 15 mM sodium azide

Anti-Human Antibodies for COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) Immunoglobulin Detection Research

Antibody-based serology tests are useful in identifying subjects with an adaptive immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Anti-human immunoglobulin antibodies allow for quick and simple, yet reliable assays with easy readouts and can also be adapted for high-throughput screening.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
