ICFC The suggested concentration for clone XMG1.2 conjugated antibody for staining cells in Intracellular Immunofluorescent flow cytometry is ≤ .25 μg per 10⁶ cells in a volume of 100 μl or 100μl of whole blood. Titration of the reagent is recommended for optimal performance for each application.

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.

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
