Application Details

Application Notes: Before using Kit, spin tubes and bring down all components to bottom of tube. Duplicate well assay was recommended for both standard and sample testing.

Sample Volume: 100 μL

Plate: Pre-coated

Protocol: ELISA Kit is based on standard sandwich enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay technology. An antibody has been precoated onto 96-well plates. Standards and test samples are added to the wells, a biotinylated detection antibody specific for target is added subsequently and then followed by washing with PBS or TBS buffer. Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex was added and unbound conjugates were washed away with PBS or TBS buffer. HRP substrate TMB was used to visualize HRP enzymatic reaction. TMB was catalyzed by HRP to produce a blue color product that changed into yellow after adding acidic stop solution. The density of yellow is proportional to the target amount in sample captured in plate.

Assay Precision: Intra-Assay Precision (CV%): 7.3%, 5.8%, 7.1%

Target Details for Complement Factor H

Target: Complement Factor H (CFH)

Alternative Name: CFH

Background:

Background: Complement factor H (CFH), originally known as beta-1H globulin, is a serum glycoprotein that regulates the function of the alternativecomplement pathway in fluid phase and on cellular surfaces. It binds to C3b, accelerates the decay of the alternative pathway convertase C3bBb, and also acts as a cofactor for complement factor I, another C3b inhibitor. The CFH gene is located on chromosome 1q32-q32.1 within a cluster of genes encoding the regulatory complement components of the activation of C3 (RCA for 'regulators of complement activation'). This gene cluster includes decay-accelerating factor (DAF), C4-binding protein (C4BPA and C4BPB), and the factor H-related genes CFHR1, CFHR2, CFHR3, CFHR4, and CFHR5, among others. The gene family has arisen by multiple duplication events.
