{"product_id":"biolegend-518001","title":"Biolegend, 518001, Biotin anti-human C3a\/C3a(desArg)\/C3 Antibody, 50μg","description":"\u003cp\u003eC3, complement component 3, is a 195 KD glycoprotein heterodimer that is linked by disulfide bonds. It is the fourth complement component to react in the classical pathway and it is also a reactant in the alternative complement pathway. C3 convertase splits C3 into C3b and C3a. C3b can bind covalently, via its reactive thioester, to cell surface carbohydrates or immune aggregates. Macrophages and neutrophils have receptors for C3b. C3a is released into the surrounding fluids. It can bind to receptors on basophils and mast cells triggering them to release their vasoactive contents (e.g., histamine). Because of the role of these materials in anaphylaxis, C3a is called an anaphylatoxin. In blood, the C3a fragment is rapidly desarginated by serum carboxypeptidase N enzyme to generate C3a desArg. Both C3a and C3a desArg are not glycosylated.\u003cbr\u003e\n50μg\u003cbr\u003e\nVerified Reactivity: Human\u003cbr\u003e\nAntibody Type: Monoclonal\u003cbr\u003e\nHost Species: Mouse\u003cbr\u003e\nImmunogen: Human C3a\u003cbr\u003e\nFormulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide.\u003cbr\u003e\nPreparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography, and conjugated with biotin under optimal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nConcentration: 0.5 mg\/ml\u003cbr\u003e\nStorage \u0026amp; Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C. Do not freeze.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication: ELISA Detection - Quality testedWB - Reported in the literature, not verified in house\u003cbr\u003e\nRecommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For ELISA detection applications, a concentration range of 0.5-2 µg\/ml is recommended. To obtain a linear standard curve, serial dilutions of C3a recombinant protein ranging from 39 to 2500 pg\/ml are recommended for each ELISA plate. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication Notes: The D17\/1 antibody reacts with human C3a, C3a(desArg) and C3. The D17\/1 antibody can neutralize the bioactivity of natural or recombinant C3a.ELISA Detection: The biotinylated D17\/1 antibody is useful as the detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA assay, when used in conjunction with the purified K13\/16 antibody (Cat. No. 518102) as the capture antibody.\u003cbr\u003e\nApplication References(PubMed link indicates BioLegend citation): Oppermann M, et al. 1991. Kidney Int. 40:939947. Oppermann M, et al. 1992.
