Complement C3c Antibody (Biotin)

23

In immunoelectrophoresis against fresh rat 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 can 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 rat serum or plasma. The biotin immunoconjugate to rat 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. In ELISA and Western blotting to identify rat C3c in serum or other body fluids. As a second step an avidin or streptavidin conjugate of the users choice has to be used. This immunoconjugate is not pre-diluted. The optimum working dilution of each conjugate should be established by titration before being used. Excess labeled antibody must be avoided because it may cause high unspecific background staining and interfere with the specific signal. Working dilutions for histochemical and cytochemical use are usually between 1:100 and 1:500. In ELISA and comparable non-precipitating antibody-binding assays between 1:1000 and 1:5000. The applications listed have been tested for the unconjugated form of this product. Other forms have not been tested..
