Complement system
The complement system is a crucial part of the immune system, consisting of
a group of proteins that work together to defend the body against infections and support immune responses. It plays a pivotal role in recognizing and eliminating pathogens, promoting inflammation, and facilitating the removal of cellular debris.
Research on the complement system is vital for several reasons. Firstly, it
helps in understanding its complex interactions with other components
of the immune system, shedding light on the mechanisms behind immune
responses. Secondly, studying the complement system aids in developing
therapeutic strategies for various immune-related disorders and autoimmune diseases.
Overall, comprehensive research on the complement system contributes
to advancing immunology, paving the way for improved treatments and
preventive measures for a wide range of health conditions.
How to analyze complement
Did you know that for accurate complement analysis, it is important that not only the correct technique is used but also that pre-analytical sample handling is performed in an appropriate manner to avoid erroneous results? Make use of our flowchart in your complement research and make sure that your complement analysis is accurate and standardized.
