title: Purification and characterization of the ninth component of rabbit complement.
abstract: A method of purification of C9 from rabbit serum is described. The three-step procedure, consisting of anion exchange chromatography, gel-filtration and isoelectric focusing yielded a homogeneous, single band protein as judged by SDS-PAGE. With regard to its physicochemical properties, rabbit C9 resembled C9 purified from human or guinea-pig serum.
