    RF and IgG join to form immune complexes that contribute to the disease process such as chronic inflammation and joint destruction at the synovium and cartilage. [ 2 ] Rheumatoid factor can also be a cryoglobulin (antibody that precipitates on cooling of a blood sample); it can be either type 2 ( monoclonal IgM to polyclonal IgG) or type 3 ...

    The anti-antibody can distinguish between human and nonhuman IgG. [8] Anti-Pan-Primate IgG [8F1] This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to Pan-primate IgG. The antibody reacts to most primate IgG, including human IgG. The most important use of anti-Pan-primate is to quantify IgG in homogenates from macaque lungs and lymph nodes. [9]

    The molten medium is then poured onto a microscope slide or into an open container, such as a Petri dish, and allowed to cool and form a gel. A solution containing the antigen is then placed in a well that is punched into the gel. The slide or container is then covered, closed or placed in a humidity box to prevent evaporation.

    The water-accessible surface area of an IgG antibody. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a type of antibody. Representing approximately 75% of serum antibodies in humans, IgG is the most common type of antibody found in blood circulation. [1] IgG molecules are created and released by plasma B cells. Each IgG antibody has two paratopes.
