Name | Anti-Complement C3 mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- MF9 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | ELISA, IHC |
Species Reactivity | Guinea Pig |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | MF9 is highly specific for guinea pig C3, with no binding observed between MF9 and guinea pig C3a, rat C3 and human C3. |
Alternative Name | C3 |
UniProt | P12387 |
Immunogen | A female New Zealand White rabbit was immunised with guinea pig C3 by three subsequent subcutaneous injections. The RNA was isolated from the spleen, a phage display library constructed and then used to produce soluble scFv fragments. |
Application Notes | ELISA was used to confirm the specificity of MF9 for guinea pig C3, with MF9 displaying high reactivity for gp C3. Reactivity with guinea pig C3a, rat C3, and human C3 was not observed (Hawlisch et al, 2000). MF9 was used to stain a rejected transplanted liver in guinea pigs (Hawlisch et al, 2000). |
