Overview

Host Type: Caprine (Goat)
Antibody Clonality: Polyclonal
Regulatory Status: RUO
Target Species: Human
Applications:
  • Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA)
  • Immunocytochemistry (ICC)
  • Immunofluorescence (IF)
  • Immunohistochemistry- Frozen Section (IHC-F)
Shipping:
Ship at ambient temperature.
Storage:
The lyophilized conjugate is shipped at ambient temperature and may be stored at +4°C; prolonged storage at or below -20°C. Prior to use an aliquot is thawed slowly in the dark at ambient temperature spun down again and used to prepare working dilutions by adding sterile phosphate buffered saline (PBS pH 7.2). Repeated thawing and freezing should be avoided. Working dilutions should be stored at +4°C not refrozen and preferably used the same day. If a slight precipitation occurs upon storage this should be removed by centrifugation. It will not affect the performance of the immunoconjugate.

Further Information

Applications Description:
ELISA,Immunocytochemistry,Immunohistochemistry (frozen),(In)direct immunofluorescence.
Background:
In immunoelectrophoresis against fresh human serum, a single precipitin line is obtained in the beta-1 region representing native C3. Against serum containing partly activated C3, a precipitin line is obtained which extends from the beta-1 into the alpha-2 region, demonstrating a gradient. In old serum containing totally activated C3 a single precipitin line in the alpha-2 region is obtained. Antisera to C3c cab also react with the fragments C3b, C3bi and smaller fragments, since they all carry antigenic determinants of the C3c domain. The product does not react with any other proteins component of human serum or plasma. The fluorescent immunoconjugate to human C3c is used to determine the presence and pattern of C3 in tissue lesions using immunohistochemical staining techniques. Locally deposited immune complexes in tissue usually contain complement, pointing to activation of the classical pathway. Complement activation in vivo implies active disease and may contribute to the elicitation of the pathogenesis and he extent of tissue destruction. Sometimes the diagnosis can be based on directly on laboratory findings. This immunoconjugate is not pre-diluted. The optimum working dilution of each conjugate should be established by titration before being used. Excess labelled antibody must be avoided because it may cause high unspecific background staining and interfere with the specific signal.

Label:
FITC
Product:
Fluorochrome-coupled purified hyperimmune IgG lyophilized from a solution in phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.2) No preservative added, as it may interfere with the antibody activity. It is reconstituted by adding 1 ml sterile distilled water, spun down to remove insoluble particles, divided into small aliquots, frozen and stored at or below -20°C.
Product Form:
FITC
Source:
C3c is the major fragment resulting from C3 cleavage by C3 convertase and factor I. It is composed of an intact beta chain bound to two fragments of the alpha chain. C3c is isolated and purified from pooled normal human serum. Freund?s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.
Specificity:
Fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated IgG fraction of polyclonal Goat antiSerum to C3c fragment of Human complement factor C3
UniProt:
