Monoclonal Antibodies

A murine monoclonal antibody to an epitope on C5

Specifications: Isotype: IgG1k Protein Concentration: > 1.0 mg/ml Volume/Vial: 100 µl Storage: -20°C or below

Specificity: This monoclonal antibody was raised against purified human C. It is specific for an antigen expressed on the C5 but not on MAC Complex. This antibody inhibits the lysis of EA and will not bind to MAC bound to a membrane.

Applications: Quidel's C5 monoclonal antibody has been used in a variety of experimental techniques including EIA, Western Blot, and RIA.
