Drug Names

Generic Name：Rat Interleukin 6(IL-6) ELISA Kit

Purpose

Our Rat Interleukin 6(IL-6)ELISA kit is to assay IL-6 levels in serum, plasma, culture media or any biological fluid.

Principle

This ELISA kit uses Sandwich-ELISA as the method. The Microelisa stripplate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to IL-6. Standards or samples are added to the appropriate Microelisa stripplate wells and combined to the specific antibody. Then a Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)- conjugated antibody specific for IL-6 is added to each Microelisa stripplate well and incubated. Free components are washed away. The TMB substrate solution is added to each well. Only those wells that contain IL-6 and HRP conjugated IL-6 antibody will appear blue in color and then turn yellow after the addition of the stop solution. The optical density (OD) is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. The OD value is proportional to the concentration of IL-6. You can calculate the concentration of IL-6 in the samples by comparing the OD of the samples to the standard curve.
