Preparation | This monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant via affinity chromatography. The purified antibody was conjugated under optimal conditions, with unreacted dye removed from the preparation. It is recommended to store the product undiluted at 4°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. |
Application Notes | This antibody preparation has been quality-tested for flow cytometry using mouse spleen cells, or an appropriate cell type (where indicated). The amount of antibody required for optimal staining of a cell sample should be determined empirically in your system. |
Storage Conditions | 2-8°C protected from light |

Background
The XMG1.2 antibody is specific for mouse Interferon-gamma (IFN-g), a 20 kDa type II cytokine known for its central roles in protection against bacterial or viral pathogens and for its anti-tumor properties. IFN-g is secreted by several types of immune cells, which allow the cytokine to modulate innate immunity, when secreted by NK and NKT cells, and to function in support adaptive immunity when secreted by Th1 and CD8+ T cells (CTLs).
The XMG1.2 antibody is suitable for detection of intracellular IFN-g protein, e.g. by flow cytometry, as well as for quantitative analysis of the secreted protein by ELISA, when paired with an appropriated secondary antibody. This clone is also widely used for neutralization of the functional activity of IFN-g in a variety of assays.
