Describes the immunisation of mice with IM-9 and/or purified Insulin receptor and the Identification of an Insulin Receptor alpha extracellular domain specific monoclonal antibody clone [83-7].
Flow-cytometry using the anti-Insulin Receptor alpha antibody 83-7 (Ab00138) Jurkat cells were stained with unimmunized rabbit IgG antibody (black line) or the rabbit-chimeric version of 83-7 (Ab00138-23.0, blue line) at a concentration of 10 µg/ml for 30 mins at RT. After washing, bound antibody was detected using anti-rabbit IgG JK (FITC-conjugate) antibody (129936) at 2 µg/ml and cells analyzed on a FACSCanto flow-cytometer.
