IL-6 (Human) ELISA Kit

Product Overview

A rapid sandwich ELISA kit for the quantitative measurement of IL-6 in human serum, plasma, cell culture supernatnat and other biological fluids

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a 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. 96Trace’s IL-6 ELISA kit is a sandwich ELISA assay for measuring the quantity of human IL-6 in serum, plasma and cell culture and other biological fluid. The entire process can be performed within 90 minutes with fewer incubation and wash steps respectively, resulting less errors and more consistent results.
