Horse IgGs have seven subclasses ranging from IgG1 to IgG7. Equine IgG antibodies mainly regulate mucosal and systemic immunological responses and thereby, provide protection against disease-causing pathogens such as Streptococcus equi, and the horse flu virus. Horse IgG may also function to control the advancement of EHV-1 infection . Anti-horse IgG (whole molecule)−peroxidase antibody is specific for IgG in horses.
Immunogen
Horse IgG
Application
Anti-horse IgG (whole molecule)−peroxidase antibody may be used in dot blot (1:8,000-1:10,000), immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections, at 1:150 dilution) and direct ELISA (1:15,000).
The level of S2-specific antibodies in test samples of horse serum was determined by ELISA using HRP-conjugated rabbit anti-horse IgG at a 1:35000 dilution with incubation for 45 minutes at room temperature.
Biochem/physiol Actions
IgG, a monoclonal antibody can be cleaved at the hinge region by nonspecific proteases like papain and pepsin. This can result in univalent Fab (antigen-binding fragments) fragments or bivalent F(ab′)2 fragments. These two enzymes have a broad substrate specificity resulting in heterogenous fragments.

We recently reported a highly protective attenuated live virus vaccine for equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) based on a proviral construct (EIAVUKDeltaS2) with a genetically engineered mutation in the viral S2 gene that eliminates expression of this accessory protein. While
African horse sickness (AHS) is a non-contagious, high mortality, and insect-borne disease caused by a double-stranded RNA virus from the genus Orbivirus. The study aimed to develop inactivated vaccines serotype 1 inactivated AHS vaccine (IAV) and to compare the effect

Loxosceles spp. (brown spiders) bites are responsible for the development of a syndrome consisting mainly of dermonecrotic lesions, and also systemic effects. Rabbits are one of the main experimental models used for better understanding the systemic and local effects of
Loxoscelism is the most important form of araneism in South America. The treatment of these accidents uses heterologous antivenoms obtained from immunization of production animals with crude loxoscelic venom. Due to the scarcity of this immunogen, new alternatives for its
