Rat IL-6 ELISA Kits

Assay IL-6 (rat interleukin-6) levels in rat serum, plasma (EDTA, heparin, sodium citrate) and culture supernatant samples with our Thermo Scientific Rat IL-6 ELISA Kits.

These rat IL-6 ELISA kits use pre-titered, matched pairs of coating and detection antibodies to achieve sensitive and accurate measurement of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in samples at 50μL per well. Also included are calibrated recombinant protein standard, streptavidin-HRP, TMB substrate solution and stop solution. The complete kits contain pre-coated 96-well strip plate(s) and lot-optimized reagents. All components undergo quality control testing to minimize lot-to-lot variability.

Highlights:

• Target: natural and recombinant rat interleukin-6 (IL-6)
• Format: colorimetric ELISA (TMB substrate) in clear 96-well strip plate
• Measurement: absorbance at 450nm minus absorbance at 550nm
• Assay Range: 62.5 to 4000pg/mL
• Sensitivity: < 16pg/mL
• Precision: dependent upon sample type
• Sample Types: cell culture supernatant, serum, plasma (EDTA, sodium citrate and heparin)
• Total Assay Time: 4 hours
• Sample Size: 50μL
• Specificity: no significant cross-reaction with rat IL-10 and TNFα; mouse IL-6, IL-1β, TNFα, IL-4, IL-2 and IL-1α; or human IL-8 and GM-CSF.

Includes:

Complete kits contain pre-coated antibody-plates, detection antibodies, buffers, diluents, standards, and substrates.
