オボアルブミン抗体 IgE 定量EIAキット Anti-Ovalbumin IgE (Mouse) EIA Kit

Immunization of mice with chicken egg albumin (ovalbumin/OVA) in a precipitate complex with aluminum hydroxide (alum) is a highly effective means of inducing a potent TH2-mediated immune response. OVA/alum immunized mice produce anti-OVA antibodies predominantly of the IgG1 and IgE isotypes that mediate tissue-specific effector functions in multiple mouse models of chronic inflammation, including allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis, and cutaneous hypersensitivity. When using one of these models, it is often desirable to measure anti-OVA antibody levels in the plasma or serum to determine the effectiveness of the immunization, the activity of a drug, or the effect of a specific gene deletion. The plasma concentration of OVA-specific IgG1, the predominant anti-OVA immunoglobulin isotype found in the serum or plasma of mice immunized with OVA/alum, is typically 1,000-fold greater than that of OVA-specific IgE.
