What are the advantages of a recombinant monoclonal antibody?
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Sandwich ELISA
The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA-based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Supplementary information

C-reactive protein (CRP) also known as CRP protein is an acute-phase protein with a molecular mass of approximately 25 kDa. It is primarily synthesized in the liver in response to cytokines. This protein appears in the blood where it binds to phosphocholine expressed on the surface of dead or dying cells. CRP is often used as a biomarker for inflammation in the body and its levels in human and canine (anti CRP used) blood samples are measured using assays like the CRP ELISA test or CRP ELISA kit.
Biological function summary

CRP plays a significant role in the innate immune system by recognizing foreign pathogens and damaged cells. It does not form part of a larger complex but itself can bind to specific ligands initiating the complement cascade. This activation enhances phagocytosis by macrophages contributing to the clearance of necrotic and apoptotic cells. The CRP protein therefore acts as a fast responder in the presence of inflammation making it a useful indicator for monitoring inflammatory diseases.

Pathways

CRP operates predominantly within the acute-phase response pathway. Its production is upregulated by cytokines such as IL-6 which connects it to inflammation-signaling pathways. CRP also interacts with the complement system bridging innate and adaptive immunity. Besides CRP could indirectly influence pathways involving other inflammatory proteins like serum amyloid A and haptoglobin creating a network of responses important for managing inflammation.

Elevated CRP levels are commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases and rheumatoid arthritis. In cardiovascular diseases CRP acts as a marker for atherosclerosis where the protein levels correlate with disease severity. It connects with other proteins involved in inflammatory processes such as fibrinogen to contribute to disease pathology. In rheumatoid arthritis CRP provides insights into disease activity helping in the assessment of treatment responses.

Target data

Displays several functions associated with host defense : it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.
