Goat Human C1s Antibody

C1 component of human complement is a complex of three glycoproteins: C1q, C1r and C1s. C1s has a molecular weight of 83,000 and is present in plasma in an average concentration of 50 μg/ml, either as a complex with C1q and C1s or in the absence of C1q as a tetramer with C1s. The subcomponents of the C1 complex are responsible for the initiation of the classical pathway of complement activation. The subunit C1s is isolated as a homogenous protein for use in antiserum production. Freund’s complete adjuvant is used in the first step of the immunization procedure.

Delipidated, heat inactivated, lyophilized, stable whole antiserum No preservative added. Total protein and IgG concentrations in the antiserum are comparable to those of pooled normal goat serum. No foreign proteins added.
