Goat IgG Isotype Control ColorWheel^® Dye-Ready pAb

ColorWheelColorWheel^® technology is a novel and proprietary method of creating your own antibody and dye combinations for use in flow cytometry. By incubating any ColorWheelColorWheel^® antibody with any ColorWheelColorWheel^® dye, researchers can quickly and simply produce primary conjugated antibodies for use in single color or multicolor flow cytometry analysis. Each ColorWheelColorWheel^® antibody and dye is lyophilized for long-term storage, allowing for simplicity and flexibility without compromise. ColorWheelColorWheel^® technology requires both ColorWheelColorWheel^® antibody and ColorWheelColorWheel^® dye for Flow Cytometry application.

We are committed to bringing you greener alternative products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry.This product is Preservative-free, lyophilized product for enhanced stability and allow for ambient shipping and thus aligns with "Waste Prevention", "Designing Safer Chemicals" and "Design for Energy Efficiency".

Isotype control antibodies are ideal negative controls for various immunological applications. They can help discriminate between specific antibody signal from non-specific background signal. In selecting an isotype control consideration of host, isotype, conjugation, light chain, and concentration are important. It should be of the same species and isotype as the antibody of interest and must be used at the same concentration and conjugated to the same fluorophore. Goat IgG Isotype Control is suitable for use an isotype-matched control for primary antibodies made in goat. It has unknown binding specificity and can be used for evaluation of background staining caused by non-specific interactions between Goat IgG antibody and the sample under defined experimental conditions. It is suitable for use in multiple applications.

Lyophilized from PBS containing D-Mannitol and Sucrose, normal appearance is a dried pellet. Reconstituted antibody solution is stable and functional as assessed by functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide.

1.0 mg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL in PBS. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C. Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial. Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL PBS. Protect from light.
