Clone: Polyclonal
Background: The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to factor H. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against human EDTA plasma a single precipitin line is obtained and shows a reaction of full identity with the purified immunogen. In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single and double radial immunodiffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) to identify the presence of F I 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.
Source: Factor H is a serum protein acting as an inhibitor in the complement activation system. I activates the C3/C5 convertase by dissociating its subunits and also acts as a cofactor for the enzyme activity of Factor I. It has been isolated as a homogenous protein for use in the antiserum production. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity: Precipitating polyclonal Sheep antiSerum to Human factor H.
Formulation: Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized, stable IgG fraction. No preservative added. Total protein and IgG concentration are comparable to those of pooled normal sheep serum. No foreign proteins added.
UniProt: P08603
