Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration. Product Preparation Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates. Pathogen Testing To protect mouse colonies from infection by pathogens and to assure that experimental preclinical data is not affected by such pathogens, all of Leinco’s Purified Functional PLATINUM<sup>TM</sup> antibodies are tested and guaranteed to be negative for all pathogens in the IDEXX IMPACT I Mouse Profile. Storage and Handling Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at ≤ -70°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity Rat Anti-Mouse Interferon Gamma (IFN-γ) (Clone XMG1.2) recognizes an epitope on Mouse IFN-γ. This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype. Background Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) or type II interferon is a dimerized soluble cytokine that is the only member of the type II class of interferons.1 It is a cytokine critical for innate and adaptive immunity against viral and intracellular bacterial infections and for tumor control. IFNG is produced predominantly by natural killer (NK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells as part of the innate immune response, and by CD4 and CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) effector T cells once antigen-specific immunity develops.2 IFN-γ has antiviral, immunoregulatory, and anti-tumour properties.3 PubMed NCBI Gene Bank ID UniProt.org Research Area Cell Biology .

It may occasionally generate incorrect or incomplete responses. Please do not rely solely on its recommendations when making purchasing decisions or designing experiments. Clone XMG1.2 is a widely used rat monoclonal antibody that specifically targets mouse interferon-gamma (IFN-?) and is used in vivo mouse studies primarily to neutralize (block) IFN-? activity during immune responses. It is also employed ex vivo or in vitro for detection by flow cytometry and other immunoassays, but its main in vivo use is as a neutralizing antibody. Key in vivo applications in mouse studies:

Summary Table: Main in vivo applications of clone XMG1.2
When describing use in published studies, researchers often simply state that "XMG1.2 was administered to neutralize IFN-? in vivo" and provide dosing/time course details as appropriate. For highly sensitive in vivo work, researchers may select Ultra-LEAF or low-endotoxin XMG1.2 preparations to minimize background immune activation unrelated to IFN-? specificity. In summary, clone XMG1.2s principal role in in vivo mouse studies is as a tool to block IFN-? activity, thereby revealing the cytokines critical functions in various immunological and pathological contexts. The correct storage temperature for sterile packaged clone XMG1.2 depends on its formulation and conjugation:
Always check the specific product datasheet or manufacturer instructions for your particular formulation. Most commonly used conjugated XMG1.2 (such as for flow cytometry) require storage at 2-8°C and must not be frozen due to risk of losing activity or damaging the fluorochrome. The search results provided focus primarily on the XMG1.2 antibody itself and its technical specifications, but don't contain detailed information about other antibodies or proteins commonly used alongside XMG1.2 in research applications. However, I can provide some context about what types of reagents are typically used with this antibody based on its applications and target. Applications and Related Research ContextXMG1.2 is extensively used across multiple experimental techniques including flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISpot, immunohistochemistry, western blotting, and neutralization assays. This broad applicability suggests it's commonly paired with various detection and analysis reagents. Likely Co-used Reagents Based on ApplicationsDetection Systems: Given that XMG1.2 is available in multiple conjugated forms including biotin and Alexa Fluor 647, it's commonly used with streptavidin-based detection systems for biotin conjugates and appropriate laser/filter combinations for fluorescent conjugates in flow cytometry applications. Isotype Controls: The antibody specifications indicate specific isotype controls are recommended, including Rat IgG1-BIOT and Rat IgG1-AF647, which are essential for proper experimental controls. Neutralization Studies: Since XMG1.2 is described as a neutralizing antibody, it's likely used in functional studies examining IFN-? biological activity, potentially alongside other cytokine measurements or cellular activation markers. Biological ContextThe antibody targets mouse IFN-?, which plays crucial roles in immune regulation and is produced by activated lymphocytes including T cells, B cells, NK cells, and innate lymphoid cells. This suggests XMG1.2 is commonly used in studies examining immune cell activation, cytokine production, and inflammatory responses. Unfortunately, the search results don't provide specific information about other antibodies frequently cited alongside XMG1.2 in the literature, which would require accessing actual research publications that use this antibody. Clone XMG1.2 is a widely cited rat monoclonal antibody specific for mouse interferon-gamma (IFN-?), used predominantly for its highly specific detection and neutralization capabilities in immunological research.
