Anti-IgM Antibody [KT38]

The Antibodies.com Anti-IgM Antibody [KT38] is a mouse monoclonal reagent raised against human immunoglobulin M. Clone KT38 recognises the μ heavy chain of IgM, enabling selective detection of human IgM in ELISA and related immunoassay workflows. Supplied as a liquid formulation at 200 µg per vial, this unconjugated IgG1 antibody is intended for research use only and can be paired with HRP- or biotin-labelled secondary reagents for flexible assay design.

Researchers commonly apply KT38 to characterise B-cell responses, monitor immunoglobulin production in vaccine and infection studies, and quantify IgM in cell culture supernatants. The antibody is specific to human IgM and shows minimal cross-reactivity with other immunoglobulin isotypes under standard assay conditions. For optimal stability, store aliquots frozen at -20°C and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Each lot is validated by the supplier to ensure consistent binding performance across experimental runs.
