Armenian hamster igg isotype control

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in United States

The Armenian hamster IgG isotype control is a laboratory reagent used in immunological assays. It serves as a reference standard to help identify and quantify the target analyte in a sample. The control is derived from the serum of Armenian hamsters and is designed to mimic the immunoglobulin G (IgG) class of antibodies.

Liver paraffin sections from 12 male mice (3 animals per age group and genotype) were labelled. Antigen retrieval was done by microwaving the sections 4x 5 min in 0.01 M citrate buffer (pH = 6) with 0.05% Tween. All antibodies were diluted in 2% BSA in PBS. Endogenous peroxidase was quenched in 3% H2O2 in methanol, and endogenous biotin with Biotin-Blocking System (Agilent, Cat. No X0590). Sections were incubated overnight at 4°C with Armenian hamster anti-mouse CD54 (ICAM-1) (5 μg/ml; Invitrogen—Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat. No MA5405) or Armenian hamster IgG isotype control (5 μg/ml; Invitrogen—Thermo Fisher Scientific, Cat. No 14-4888-81). After rinsing in PBS with 0.05% Tween, sections were incubated for 30 min at RT with biotin-streptavidin-conjugated goat anti-Armenian hamster IgG (H+L, eBioscience, Cat. No 13–411385; 1.25 μg/ml), washed and incubated for 30 min with Streptavidin peroxidase (Agilent, Cat. No P0397). A diaminobenzidine substrate chromogen system kit (BD Pharmingen, Cat. No 550880) was used to visualize a positive reaction. Sections were counter-stained with haematoxylin, and images taken in a Nikon Eclipse TE2000-U Inverted Microscope.

Mice were intranasally inoculated with 1×103 inclusion-forming units (IFU) of C. muridarum EBs in 40μl SPG buffer. For IL-9-blockade experiments, mice were intranasally administered with 10μg (40μl) of either Armenian hamster IgG anti-mouse IL-9 mAb (Cat:16–7093, eBioscience, San Diego, USA) or Armenian hamster IgG isotype control (Cat:16–4888, eBioscience, San Diego, USA) at one day before, the same day and every 2 days after the intranasal infection. Mice were sacrificed at designated days after infection. Lung tissues were removed and homogenized in 3ml SPG buffer. After centrifugation to clear residual debris, the homogenates were used for measuring cytokines (IL-9, IL-17 and IFN-γ) and titrating live chlamydial organisms as described [24 (link)].

T Cell Activation and Cytokine Regulation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Th1 and Th2 cells cultures were harvested on day four after stimulation, or restimulation in the case of Th2 cells. Lympholyte M was used to remove dead cells. Cells were then counted and resuspended at 2 x 106 cells/ml either with or without 2 μM Cyclosporin A (CsA) (Sigma-Aldrich) to block de novo TCR-induced cytokine production. Spleens were harvested from B10.A and B10.A CD40 knock-out mice, and target splenocytes were prepared by hypotonic lysis. Antigen-bearing splenocytes were labeled with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE, Thermo Fisher Scientific) or Cell Trace Violet (CTV, Thermo Fisher Scientific) following manufacturer’s protocol, and pulsed with 2.5 μM MCC peptide for two hours at 37°C. The splenocytes were then were washed three times and combined with 1 x 106 T cells, either with or without 1 μM CsA. Overnight assays were performed in the presence or absence of fluorescently labeled anti-CD40L-PE antibody (clone MR-1, eBiosciences) at 1 μg/ml or unlabeled anti-CD40L (clone MR-1, BioXcel) or Armenian Hamster IgG isotype control (eBiosciences) at the indicated concentrations. After overnight incubation, cells were stained with anti-CD4-PeCy7, anti-CD19-PerCP, anti-ICAM-1-biotin, and streptavidin-APC (allophycocyanin), and analyzed on the LSRII flow cytometer.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
