| Product Name | Anti-Human C3d Polyclonal Antibody |
|---|---|
| Description | Tested in immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion against normal human serum, a single precipitin line is obtained and giving a reaction of full identity with the purified immunogen. The antiserum is also reacting with fragments bearing common determinants: C3, C3b, C3bi. The product does not react with any other proteins component of human serum or plasma. In supernatants of sera containing 10% polyethyleneglycol only a reaction with C3d has been obtained. In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single and double radial immunodiffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) to identify the presence of complement C3d or to determine its concentration. The presence of non-precipitating antibodies has not been assayed. This does not exclude the use of the antiserum in non-precipitating antibody-binding techniques if proper controls are included. Determinations of individual complement components can be very useful in defining the exact location of a defect. |

| Immunogen | C3d is a component of complement. Cell-bound C3b may undergo limited proteolysis to release the fragment C3c and retain C3d on the membrane. The protein is isolated and purified from pooled normal human serum by precipitation techniques, followed by chromatographical methods. FreundÍs complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure. |
| Reactivity | Human |
| Applications | IP |
| Storage | 2-8C for immediate use, or at -2°C (aliquot). Avoid repeated freezing and thawing |
