Goat anti-Mouse IgM+IgG+IgA (H+L) Antibody, Alkaline Phosphatase, Species Adsorbed detects level of Mouse IgM+IgG+IgA & has been published & validated for use in ELISA.

General description

IgG is the most abundant immunoglobulin compose of two heavy chains and two light chains. Each molecule has two antigen binding sites. IgG has 4 subclasses: IgG1 (66%), IgG2 (23%), IgG3 (7%) and IgG4 (4%). IgM constitutes about 10% of serum immunoglobulins. IgM (with IgD) is the major immunoglobulin expressed on the surface of B cells. Monomeric IgA constitutes 5-15 % of the serum immunoglobulins whereas dimeric IgA is localized to mucosa surfaces.
