| Preparation Method | Antibodies are produced in rabbits by immunization with equine immunoglobulins and formulated with selected β globulins including the C3 component of complement. The resulting antiserum is heated at 56 °C for 30 minutes to inactivate rabbit complement. Heteroagglutinins are absorbed with pooled normal equine red blood cells. The reagent is tested with normal and antibody-coated equine red blood cells to assure its specificity. |
