Clone: Polyclonal
Background: The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to alpha-foetoprotein. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against amniotic fluid, hepatoma sera and purified alpha-foetoprotein a single precipitin line is obtained. No precipitation reaction is obtained with normal human serum. In precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single and double radial immunodiffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) to identify the presence of alpha-1 orosomucoid or to determine its concentration.
Source: Alpha-1 orosomucoid is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 41,000. It is an acute phase protein with a carbohydrate content of 42%. The mean concentration of this protein in serum is 900 μg/ml. Concentrations are elevated in cases of tissue damage, inflammation, oestrogen administration and the presence of myeloma. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity: Precipitating polyclonal Rabbit antiSerum to Human alpha-1 orosomucoid (alpha-1 acid glycoprotein).
Formulation: Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized, stable whole antiserum. No preservative added. Total protein and IgG concentrations in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled normal rabbit serum. No foreign proteins added.
UniProt: P02763
