Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change. DescriptionSpecificity This polyclonal antibody is affinity-purified. Cross-reactivity with mouse IgM, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG2c, IgG3, and IgE is not detectable. Background Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is a crucial antibody primarily found in a dimeric form, meaning two IgA molecules are linked together by a J-chain protein. This unique structure allows IgA to play a vital role in mucosal immunity, protecting surfaces exposed to the external environment. You'll find IgA concentrated in areas rich in mucous membranes, such as the gut, respiratory system, eyes, and in colostrum (the first form of milk produced by mammals after birth). IgA exists in two main forms: Secretory IgA (sIgA): This is the predominant form found in mucosal secretions. Its specialized structure makes it highly resistant to degradation, allowing it to effectively neutralize pathogens on mucosal surfaces. Serum IgA: This monomeric form circulates in the bloodstream and plays a role in systemic immunity. Detecting Human IgA with Goat Anti-Human IgA-HRP Our Goat Anti-Human IgA-HRP conjugate is an ideal tool for detecting human IgA in various research applications. This secondary antibody is generated in goats and specifically targets human IgA. It's pre-conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP), an enzyme that enables chromogenic or chemiluminescent detection when a suitable substrate is added. This makes our Goat Anti-Human IgA-HRP conjugate particularly useful for techniques like Western blotting, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry to identify and quantify human IgA.
