IL6 Chemi-Luminescent ELISA Kit (Human)

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Interleukin 6 (IL6) were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively. Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays) : 3 samples with low, middle and high level Interleukin 6 (IL6) were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate. CV (%) = SD/meanX100 Intra-Assay: CV<10% Inter-Assay: CV<12%

B-cell differentiation factor; B-cell stimulatory factor 2; BSF2; BSF-2; CDF; CTL differentiation factor; HGF; HSF; hybridoma growth factor; IFNB2; IFN-beta-2; IL-6; interferon beta-2; interleukin BSF-2; interleukin-6.

Cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions. It is a potent inducer of the acute phase response. Plays an essential role in the final differentiation of B-cells into Ig-secreting cells Involved in lymphocyte and monocyte differentiation. Acts on B-cells, T-cells, hepatocytes, hematopoietic progenitor cells and cells of the CNS. Required for the generation of T (H) 17 cells. Also acts as a myokine. It is discharged into the bloodstream after muscle contraction and acts to increase the breakdown of fats and to improve insulin resistance. It induces myeloma and plasmacytoma growth and induces nerve cells differentiation.

The microplate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to Interleukin 6 (IL6) . Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microplate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to Interleukin 6 (IL6) . Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. Then the mixture of substrate A and B is added to generate glow light emission kinetics. Upon plate development, the intensity of the emitted light is proportional to the Interleukin 6 (IL6) level in the sample or standard.
