Product Description

Immunoglobulin classes share the same basic four polypeptide chain structure of two heavy chains (five types) and two light chains - kappa and lambda. The determination of light chain ratio is critical in evaluating B-cell neoplasms, as the majority of B-cell lymphomas express either kappa or lambda light chains, while a mixture of kappa and lambda is characteristic of reactive proliferations. Antibodies against lambda light chain is reportedly useful in the identification of leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas.

Production & Epitope

Antiserum was solid phase adsorbed to ensure specificity. The antiserum was fractionated and passed over DEAE to yield an IgG fraction.

Total protein was determined using Beer’s Law where 1mg/mL IgG has an A280 of 1.4. Total Protein: 15 mg/ml

By immunoelectrophoresis this antibody reacts specifically with lambda free light chain in Bence Jones Urines. No antibody was detected against kappa light chains or serum proteins.

Applications

Not all listed applications have been specifically tested by our laboratory.

For use in precipitin gel reactions (e.g. immunoelectrophoresis (IEP), double diffusion Ouchterlony (DD) or immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE)).

Optimal working dilutions should be determined experimentally by the investigator.
