From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antibody is specific for the heavy chain of alligator IgY.
Alternative Names
immunoglobulin Y light chain
UniProt
Immunogen
The original antibody was generated by immunizing Balb/c mice with purified alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) IgY.
Application Notes
This antibody was used to develop an ELISA for quantifying serum antibody responses against whole bacterial pathogens in alligators. This antibody can also be used for WB (Alston et al., 2022; PMID: 35205135).
