Human alpha-1 fetoprotein

Human AFP / Alpha-Fetoprotein. The reactivity of the antiserum is restricted to alpha-fetoprotein. In immunoelectrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion, using various antiserum concentrations against amniotic fluid, hepatoma sera and purified alpha-fetoprotein a single precipitin line is obtained. No precipitation reaction is obtained with normal human serum. Cross-reactivity The antiserum does not cross react with any other human plasma proteins as tested in gel- diffusion techniques. Inter-species cross reactivity is a normal feature of antibodies to mammalian serum proteins, since homologous proteins of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Cross-reactivity of this antiserum has not been tested in detail.

• Immunodiffusion

This product is intended for use in precipitating techniques as immunoelectrophoresis and single and double radial immunodiffusion (Mancini, Ouchterlony) to identify the presence of alpha-fetoprotein or to determine its concentration.
