Specificity
Human F12 / Factor XII. The defined antibody reactivity is restricted to FXII, FXIIa and complexes of FXIIa with other proteins. In immunoelectrophoresis, bi-dimensional electrophoresis and radial immunodiffusion (Ouchterlony) against normal plasma, a single precipitin line is obtained which shows a reaction of identity with precipitated purified Factor XII. No reaction is obtained with FXII-depleted plasma. 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 plasma proteins, since homologous proteins of different species frequently share antigenic determinants. Cross-reactivity of this antiserum has not been tested in detail, however in immunoelectrophoresis a reaction with Rhesus monkey plasma has been found.
