Interpolated concentrations of Factor B in normal human serum donors.
Serum of eight individual healthy human female donors was measured in duplicate. Interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +- SD, n=2). The mean Factor B concentration was determined to be 255 μg/mL with a range of 178 – 331 μg/mL.

How the assay works
Human Factor B SimpleStep ELISA®employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details.
Assay Specificity
Our SimpleStep ELISA® kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

Biological function summary
Factor B is involved in the alternative complement pathway which serves as a part of the body's defense mechanism. It participates in the formation of the C3 convertase together with factor D and properdin initiating a cascade that can lead to the opsonization and elimination of pathogens. Factor B undergoes cleavage by factor D which generates the Ba and Bb fragments with Bb functioning as a serine protease within the C3 convertase complex.
Pathways
Factor B contributes to the complement system interacting notably in the alternative and lectin pathways. In these pathways Factor B associates with proteins like complement component C3. The alternative pathway is activated on microbial surfaces independent of antibodies. The involvement of Factor B in these pathways illustrates its role in pathogen recognition and further highlights its cooperation with complement proteins such as C3 and properdin.
