The Rabbit Anti-Human IgM mu chain antibody (FITC-conjugated) is a polyclonal antibody generated in rabbits that specifically targets the mu (μ) heavy chain of human immunoglobulin M (IgM). Conjugated to fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), this antibody enables the fluorescent detection of human IgM in various immunological assays. Its polyclonal nature allows it to recognize multiple epitopes on the IgM mu chain, ensuring robust and sensitive detection. This antibody is widely used in flow cytometry, immunofluorescence microscopy, and other fluorescence-based applications to analyze B-cell populations, assess humoral immune responses, or detect IgM antibodies in serum or tissue samples. The FITC label emits a bright green fluorescence when excited, making it ideal for multi-color staining protocols and quantitative analysis. This reagent is particularly valuable in both clinical diagnostics and immunological research for identifying early-stage immune responses, as IgM is the first antibody isotype produced following antigen exposure.
