Frozen in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, with 200 mM NaCl and 0.05% NaN3.

The IgG, fc fragment does not bind antigen; however, it does contain the classic antigenic determinants and biological activity with respect to cytotrophic reactions, binding of complement and catabolic rate control.

Storage: -20°C

Purity: 99% by SDS-PAGE; Single arc by IEP; Immunogen Grade per Western Blot

Prepared from plasma shown to be non reactive for HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HBc, and negative for anti-HIV 1 & 2 by FDA-required tests.
