Related Product Information for Rf-Absorbent detection kit
Principle of the Assay: Rheumatoid factors are autoantibodies (anti-IgG) mainly of the IgM class. They can be detected in serum of approx. 5 % of healthy individuals. IgM rheumatoid factors preferably bind to IgG immune complexes; therefore, false positive results may appear in the pathogen-specific IgM detection. Furthermore, it is possible that weak-binding pathogen-specific IgM antibodies are displaced by stronger-binding IgG antibodies. In this case, IgM-detection can bring about false negative results. This Rf-Absorbent precipitates up to 15 mg IgG/ml (undiluted serum). The IgM rheumatoid factor binds to the precipitate. Consequently, the IgG antibodies as well as the IgM rheumatoid factors are not reactive in the immunoassay. The use of this Rf-Absorbent can minimize false positive as well as false negative results.

Product Notes

The Rf-Absorbent (Catalog #AAA14219) is a Detection Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. Working Dilution: Ready to use. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Rf-Absorbent for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Rf-Absorbent, Detection Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
