Immunogen
Chicken IgY, whole molecule. IgY is the original designation for the IgG-like protein found in both serum and egg yolk.
Purity and Specificity
The antibody was isolated from antisera by immunoaffinity chromatography using antigens coupled to agarose beads. Based on immunoelectrophoresis and/or ELISA, this antibody reacts with whole molecule chicken IgY, and with the light chains of other chicken immunoglobulins. No reactivity was detected against non-immunoglobulin serum proteins. This antibody was tested by ELISA and/or solid-phase adsorbed to ensure minimal cross-reactivity with bovine, goat, guinea pig, Syrian hamster, horse, human, mouse, rabbit, rat, and sheep serum proteins, but may cross-react with immunoglobulins from other species. The conjugate has been specifically tested and qualified for Western blot applications.
Applications
Highly recommended for:
- Western Blot
- In-Cell Western™ Assay
- On-Cell Western Assay
- Protein Array

Formulation
IRDye 800CW Secondary Antibodies are supplied as purified immunoglobulin conjugates, lyophilized in phosphate-buffered saline, pH 7.4. Protect from light. Store at 4 °C prior to reconstitution.
Each vial contains 10 mg/mL BSA (free of IgG and protease) as a stabilizer and 0.01% sodium azide as a preservative, after reconstitution. Concentration is 1.0 mg/mL when reconstituted as directed. Refer to the pack insert for details on reconstitution.
