Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
DID: 1/8.

Using an Ouchterlony double diffusion (ODD) assay, in 1% agarose, 5 µl of serially diluted reconstituted antiserum is reacted against 5 µl of 1 mg/ml solution of purified human complement C3 (well separation: 7.5 mm center to center). Titer is equivalent to the highest dilution of antiserum resulting in a visible precipitate after 24 hours.

Not tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

The complement factor C3 consists of an alpha and a beta chain. C3 is a central factor in the complement cascade. It is central to the alternative pathway that leads to the C3 convertase C3bBb. The classical mannose binding lectin activation pathway leads to the C3 convertase C4b2a. These convertases cleave C3 resulting in C3a and C3b. Further degradation leads to the formation of the alpha chain products C3d, C3g and C3c. C3 is an acute phase protein that is produced by a wide range of tissues, including renal epithelial cells and hepatocytes.
