General description

Heat-killed, formalin-fixed Staphylococcus aureus cells (Cowan I strain) that bear a high cell-surface density of protein A and have been pickled by the method of Kessler. Useful as a solid-phase IgG-binding reagent due to the high-affinity interaction of protein A with the Fc domain of IgG. PANSORBIN cells work best when the antibody is human (IgG1, IgG2, IgG4), rabbit IgG (all isotypes), or mouse (IgG2a, IgG2b, IgG3).
PANSORBIN Cells are heat-killed, formalin fixed Staphylococcus aureus cells that have a coat of protein A and have been pickled by the method of Kessler. Useful for mitogenic stimulation of B lymphocytes and for immunoprecipitation.

Application

Most common applications include immunoprecipitation and mitogenic stimulation of B lymphocytes.

Warning

Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)

Physical form

Supplied as a ≥10% (w/v) Staphylococcus aureus cell suspension in PBS, 0.1% sodium azide, pH 7.2.
