Product: Anti Bovine IgM Monoclonal Antibody
Catalog No.: 165252
Description: Bovine IgMs are glycoprotein antibodies that regulate antigen binding during immunological responses. These antibodies have three isotypes, namely, IgMa, IgMb and IgMc. Structural restraints on movement enhance the complement-fixing functions of bovine IgMs. Monoclonal Anti-Bovine IgM antibody detects an epitope the heavy chain of bovine IgM. The antibody reacts with bovine serum, but does not react with sera from human, baboon, marmoset, gibbon, rhesus, hamster, rabbit, goat, pig, dog, rat, turkey, chicken, or catfish. IgM plays a key role in engulfing the apoptotic cells. A reduction in serum IgM levels leads to increased autoimmune response and higher risk for infections.
