Rabbit Anti-Chicken IgY Antibody, HRP conjugate

Chickens transfer high quantities of IgY (IgG) into the egg yolk and harvesting antibodies from eggs eliminates the need for the invasive bleeding procedure. One week′s eggs can contain 10 times more antibodies than the volume of rabbit blood obtained from one weekly bleeding.

However, there are some disadvantages when using certain chicken derived antibodies in immunoassays. Chicken IgY does not fix mammalian complement component C1 and it does not perform as a precipitating antibody using standard solutions.

Detect Chicken IgY using this Rabbit anti-Chicken IgY Antibody, HRP conjugate validated for use in ELISA, WB, IH.
