Anti-Ig light chain (κ, λ) antibodies

We make 5 antibodies against Ig light chain (κ, λ) for mouse, unconjugated or conjugated to biotin. This page explains how they differ, so you can pick the one your experiment needs.

What differs between these antibodies

Which clone

We make 3 anti-Ig light chain (κ, λ) antibody clones. A clone is one specific antibody that binds one site on its target, so it is what you cite or reorder by name. A sandwich assay needs two clones that bind different sites; the capture and detection pairs below are matched for that.

Which conjugate

Unconjugated antibodies carry no label. You coat a plate with them as the capture antibody, or use them where the antibody itself is the reagent. Biotinylated antibodies are detected with a streptavidin conjugate, such as streptavidin-ALP or streptavidin-HRP.

Capture and detection pairs

To build your own Ig light chain (κ, λ) ELISA or ELISpot, coat with the unconjugated capture antibody and detect with the biotinylated detection antibody, then a streptavidin conjugate.

About Ig

An antibody (also called immunoglobulin) is a glycoprotein expressed by B cells. Each antibody consists of four polypeptide chains, with two identical copies of both the light and heavy chains. Intra- and inter-chain disulfide bonds link the four polypeptide chains together to one antibody. The heavy chain decides the antibody’s isotype and subclass. The light chains of an antibody are identical and can be of two types; kappa (κ) or lambda (λ). The ratio of kappa: lambda in serum immunoglobulins varies significantly among species.
