This antibody reacts with the Immunoglobulins bearing kappa light chains. The evaluation of cell surface Kappa/Lambda expression can identify clonally restricted B lymphocyte populations and thus can aide in the diagnosis of hematologic malignancy. Several B cell disorders are associated with decreased levels of Kappa/Lambda at the cell surface.
The reagent is provided in aqueous buffered solution containing protein stabilizer, and ≤0.09% sodium Azide (NaN3).
Immunogen
Polyclonal immunoglobulin light chains of kappa type isolated from a pool of human sera for Rabbit Anti-Human Kappa Light Chains.
Concentration
Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration. Typically 0,05 mg/ml.
Recomended usage
Kappa, is a polyclonal antibody intended for simultaneous identification, detection/enumeration of kappa and lambda light chains. This reagent is effective for direct IF staining of human tissue for FCM analysis using ≤1 μg/10^6 cells.
