Mouse anti human c5b 9

Manufactured by Agilent Technologies

Mouse anti-human C5b-9 is a laboratory reagent used to detect the membrane attack complex (MAC) formed during the complement activation cascade. It specifically recognizes the C5b-9 complex, which is a key component of the terminal pathway of the complement system.

Complement Activation via ELISA

ELISA plates were coated with 10μg/mL mannan or 10μg/mL LPS then blocked as described above. WT mouse serum or NHS were diluted in BBS buffer, added to the plate and incubated for 1h at 37°C. Binding of C3b or C4b were detected using either rabbit anti-C3c (Dako) or rabbit anti-C4c (Dako), mouse anti-human C5b-9 (Dako) or rat anti mouse C5b-9, respectively, followed by HRP conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG, rabbit anti-human or rabbit anti-rat antibodies. To assess complement C3b deposition via the AP, serum samples were diluted in EGTA buffer (4 mM barbital, 145 mM NaCl, 20mM EGTA, 2mM MgCl2, pH 7.4), a buffer that prevents C3b deposition via the CP or LP while leaving the AP unaffected.

Complement Deposition Assay Using Modified IgG

Maxisorp plates (Nunc) were randomly coated with 10 µg/ml (ca‐)IgG in coating buffer (0·1 M Na2CO3, 0·1 M NaHCO3, pH 9.6) In mixing experiments the final concentration was 10 µg/ml with different ratios between the ca‐IgG and non‐modified IgG, unless indicated otherwise. Plates were blocked with PBS/1% BSA and incubated with 1% normal human serum (NHS, pooled from four healthy donors) or heat‐inactivated NHS as a control (diluted in GVB++; 0·1% gelatin, 5 mM Veronal, 145 mM NaCl, 0·025% NaN3, 0·15 mM CaCl2, 0·5 mM MgCl2, pH 7.3). Complement binding or deposition was analyzed with rabbit anti‐human C1q (Dako; cat. no. A0136), goat anti‐human C4 (Quidel, San Diego, CA, USA; cat. no. A305), rabbit anti‐human C3c (Dako; cat. no. A0062) and mouse anti‐human C5b9 (Dako; cat. no. M0777) with corresponding HRP‐labelled secondary antibodies in PBS/1% BSA/0·05% Tween. Finally, the substrate was added using ABTS and absorbance measured at 415 nm using the Biorad iMark Microplate Absorbance Reader.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
