Application
Blue Carrier is an oxygen-carrying protein isolated from the hemolymph of the mollusk Concholepas concholepas. It is highly immunogenic, useful as a carrier protein for the production of antibodies to small molecules. An example of the protocol is given in reference to production of antibodies to gizzerosine.
Hemocyanin is a carrier protein used in antibody production. It has been used to promote antibody production against haptins and peptides, in therepy for bladder carcinoma, and has a component in vaccines for cancer.

We studied the reactivity of mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the hemocyanin from the Chilean marine gastropod Concholepas concholepas (CCH). This protein has been successfully used as a carrier to produce antibodies to haptens and peptides. All MAbs (13) belonging

We determined the antitumor properties of a newly available hemocyanin obtained from the Chilean gastropod Concholepas concholepas (Biosonda Corp., Santiago, Chile) in a syngeneic heterotopic mouse bladder carcinoma model. Since keyhole limpet hemocyanin (Pierce, Rockford, Illinois) is used increasingly in
Enhanced structural stability of Concholepas hemocyanin increases its immunogenicity and maintains its non-specific immunostimulatory effects.
