Isolation of human complement factors C3, C5 and H
An improved method for simultaneous purification of complement factors C3, C5 and H from human plasma has been developed. Using an initial batch separation technique with QAE-Sephadex, followed by chromatography on SP-Sephadex and gel filtration in Sephadex G-200, 600 mg of highly pure C3 can be prepared from 1600 ml of plasma. Simultaneously about 70 mg of highly pure factor H and 30 mg of C5 are
