Description
The G7-26 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the constant region of human Immunoglobulin E (IgE). It does not crossreact with other immunoglobulin heavy chain isotypes. IgE exists in a transmembrane form that is expressed by B lymphocytes and serves as an antigen receptor. Soluble IgE is produced and secreted by activated B cells and plasma cells. IgE may bind through its constant region to cell surface receptors, such as the high-affinity (FcεRI) or low-affinity (FcεRII/CD23) receptors for IgE. FcεRI is expressed on mast cells, basophils, and at lower levels, on dendritic cells and monocytes. FcεRII/CD23 is expressed by B cells and by some other cell types including T cells, monocytes, eosinophils, neutrophils, follicular dendritic cells, and Langerhans cells. Crosslinking of Fc receptor-bound IgE antibodies by multivalent antigens or allergens can induce phagocytosis or the cellular release of inflammatory mediators. Although IgE can provide immune protection against pathogenic parasites, it may also play a central role in a variety of allergic disorders.

The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography.The antibody was conjugated with AKP under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free AKP were removed.Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light.Do not freeze.
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/pharmingen/protocols for technical protocols.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
In a quantitative sandwich ELISA for measuring IgE, this antibody may be used at concentration of 1:1000 dilution and be paired with purified anti-human IgE clone G7-18 (Cat. No. 555894).
