app notes :
This product is suitable for ELISA and blotting applications
other info1 :
Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2
other info2 :
Preservative: 0.1% sodium azide. Procedure: Rabbits were immunized with purified horse haptoglobin in Freund's adjuvant. The rabbits were bled, serum collected and passaged over an immunoabsorbant column containing serum proteins but lacking haptoglobin. The anti-haptoglobin was then affinity purified off an antigen containing immunoabsorbant.
products categories :
Horse Protein
products description :
Rabbits were immunized with highly purified native horse haptoglobin. The resulting antiserum was passed over an antigen containing immunoabsorbant from which the anti-BSA was immunoaffinity purified.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a preproprotein, which is processed to yield both alpha and beta chains, which subsequently combine as a tetramer to produce haptoglobin. Haptoglobin functions to bind free plasma hemoglobin, which allows degradative enzymes to gain access to the hemoglobin, while at the same time preventing loss of iron through the kidneys and protecting the kidneys from damage by hemoglobin. Mutations in this gene and/or its regulatory regions cause ahaptoglobinemia or hypohaptoglobinemia. This gene has also been linked to diabetic nephropathy, the incidence of coronary artery disease in type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease, inflammatory disease behavior, primary sclerosing cholangitis, susceptibility to idiopathic Parkinson's disease, and a reduced incidence of Plasmodium falciparum malaria. A similar duplicated gene is located next to this gene on chromosome 16. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
uniprot summary :
HP: Haptoglobin combines with free plasma hemoglobin, preventing loss of iron through the kidneys and protecting the kidneys from damage by hemoglobin, while making the hemoglobin accessible to degradative enzymes. Defects in HP are the cause of anhaptoglobinemia (AHP). AHP is a condition characterized by the absence of the serum glycoprotein haptoglobin. Serum levels of haptoglobin vary among normal persons: levels are low in the neonatal period and in the elderly, differ by population, and can be influenced by environmental factors, such as infection. Secondary hypohaptoglobinemia can occur as a consequence of hemolysis, during which haptoglobin binds to free hemoglobin. Belongs to the peptidase S1 family.
