Factor IX Polyclonal Antibody – Affinity Purified – HRP Conjugated – Goat
GAFIX-APHRP – Goat anti human Factor IX, affinity purified, peroxidase conj. IgG (0.1 mg vial)
Factor IX Deficient – Depleted Plasma is manufactured from normal citrated human plasma that has been depleted of Factor IX by selective affinity immuno-adsorption using antibodies directed towards FIX.
Only the highest quality citrated plasma is used as starting material and in many cases the parent plasma is available as control material. Plasma products are typically buffered with the addition of HEPES to 20mM final concentration and are available in 1ml vials to litre quantities. Our Factor IX Deficient – Depleted Plasma can be used for further manufacturing or research use only applications.
Product Code: FIX-DP
Presentation: Frozen Factor IX Deficient – Depleted Plasma
Preparation/Handling: Thaw 1 ml vials in 37oC water bath for 5 minutes; for bulk volumes, thawing time will be dependent on bottle size.
Storage and Stability: Plasma is shipped frozen and should be stored below -60oC. Product is stable until date stated on vial label when stored at -60oC. Once thawed, plasma is stable for 4 hours at 2-8oC in original vial.
Certificate of Analysis: available upon request
Factor IX (FIX, Christmas Factor) is a vitamin K-dependent glycoprotein produced in the liver. Plasma concentration of FIX is normally around 5 μg/ml (87 nM) in plasma. The biological importance of FIX is demonstrated in Haemophilia B (Christmas disease), an X-linked congenital bleeding disease resulting from a quantitative (low activity and low antigen) or qualitative (low activity, normal antigen) defect in FIX function.
In its proenzyme or zymogen form FIX is a single chain molecule of 55,000 daltons. It contains two EGF-like domains and an amino-terminal domain containing 12 γ-carboxy-glutamic acid (Gla) residues. These Gla residues allow FIX to bind divalent metal ions and participate in calcium-dependent binding interactions. The activation of F.IX occurs by limited proteolysis in the presence of calcium by activated factor XI (FXIa) and/or by a complex of VIIa/tissue factor/phospholipid and activated Factor X between residues Arg146-Ala147 and between Arg180-Val181. The terminal activated product in either case is FIXaβ, a two-chain enzyme consisting of a heavy chain (28,000 daltons), a light chain (18,000 daltons) and an activation peptide product of 11,000 daltons. FIX can also be cleaved into inactive products by thrombin and by elastase.
The activity of FIXaβ in plasma is inhibited by antithrombin and this inhibition is accelerated 1000-fold in the presence of optimal concentrations of heparin 1-3.
