Anti- Human IgA2

Human IgA occurs in multiple molecular forms (polymeric and monomeric) and two subclasses which show differential distribution between the mucosal and circulatory compartments of the immune system. In humans, 85–90% of IgA antibodies are found in body secretions such us saliva, tears, breast milk; gastrointestinal mucous membranes, urogenital and respiratory tracts and prostatic fluid, among others. The other 10-15% of IgA antibodies are found in blood as monomeric, IgA1, and polymeric forms IgA2. IgA1 is present 5 times more than IgA2.
