Description of Complement Hemolytic Activity Assay

Complement Hemolytic Activity Assay: A screening assay for circulating COMPLEMENT PROTEINS.

The values are expressed by the so called CH50, in HEMOLYTIC COMPLEMENT units per milliliter, which is the dilution of serum required to lyse 50 percent of the erythrocytes in the assay.
