Ceruloplasmin (Cp) is a plasma metalloprotein synthesized and secreted by the liver. Cp (also known as ferroxidase; iron (II):oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.16.3.1) is a blue alpha-2-glycoprotein that binds 90 to 95% of plasma copper and has 6 or 7 cupric ions per molecule. It is involved in peroxidation of Fe(II) transferrin to form Fe(III) transferrin.
Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA, Immunoelectrophoresis and Single and Double Radial Immunodiffusion. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Immunoelectrophoresis: 2ml plasma or equivalent against 120ml antiserum
Double Radial Immunodiffusion: Use a rosette arrangement with 10ml antiserum in 3mm
diameter center well and 2ml plasma samples (neat and serially diluted) in 2mm diameter
peripheral wells.
Single Radial Immunodiffusion: 1% in the gel.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
