How the assay works
This assay employs an antibody specific for Rabbit C3A coated on a 96-well plate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells C3A present in a sample is bound to the wells by the immobilized antibody. The wells are washed, and biotinylated anti-Rabbit C3A antibody is added. After washing away unbound biotinylated antibody, HRP-conjugated streptavidin is pipetted to the wells. The wells are again washed, a TMB substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of C3A bound. The Stop Solution changes the color from blue to yellow, and the intensity of the color is measured at 450 nm.
Assay Specificity
Our ELISA kits are rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility. Please check the protocol booklet for more details

Biological function summary
C3 fragments particularly C3a influence various immune responses. As part of the complement system C3 integrates into a complex network of proteins. This activation cascade enhances the body's ability to combat pathogens. C3a interacts with receptors on immune cells mediating inflammatory response and acting as a chemoattractant. C3b another key fragment binds to pathogen surfaces aiding opsonization and immune clearance.
Pathways
C3's function plays an important role in the alternative and classical complement pathways. In the alternative pathway C3b contributes directly by forming a C3 convertase complex. This interaction facilitates further cleavage of C3 amplifying immune response. C3b also associates with proteins like Factor B and Factor D to stabilize the convertase complex and enhance opsonization. In the classical pathway C3 interacts with components like C4b to optimize pathogen elimination.
