Lambda Light Chain [N10/2]
$158.00 – $406.00
Description
Product Description
The Lambda Light Chain [N10/2] antibody is a mouse monoclonal antibody developed for the detection of lambda light chains of human immunoglobulins. Immunoglobulin light chains exist in two classes: kappa and lambda. In healthy individuals, the kappa to lambda ratio is approximately 2:1.19-20
Detection of light chain restriction can aid in the diagnosis of lymphoid malignancies. Neoplastic proliferations such as leukemias, plasmacytomas, and certain non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas often demonstrate restricted expression of a single light chain class.16,17 A skewed kappa/lambda ratio, particularly greater than 10:1 or an absence of one light chain type, may be consistent with a monoclonal (malignant) proliferation.15,16
The immunohistochemical (IHC) detection of lambda light chains using the Lambda Light Chain [N10/2] antibody may aid in the assessment of clonality in lymphoproliferative disorders.16-19
