IgM (Immunoglobulin Mu Heavy Chain) (B-Cell Marker)

IgM (Immunoglobulin Mu Heavy Chain) (B-Cell Marker)

• Gene Name: [IGHM]
• Reactivity: Human
• Storage Conditions: Antibody with azide: store at 2 to 8 degree C.
  Antibody without azide: store at -20 to -80 degree C.
  Antibody is stable for 24 months. Non-hazardous. No MSDS required.
• Specificity: Recognizes a protein of 75kDa, identified as mu heavy chain of human immunoglobulins. It does not cross-react with alpha (IgA), gamma (IgG), epsilon (IgE), or delta (IgD), heavy chains, T-cells, monocytes, granulocytes, or erythrocytes. This MAb is useful in the identification of leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin s lymphomas. The most common feature of these malignancies is the restricted expression of a single heavy chain class. Demonstration of clonality in lymphoid infiltrates indicates that the infiltrate is clonal and therefore malignant.
