IL-6 antibody

IL-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in the regulation of immune and inflammatory responses.
Product Details
- Target Species
- Rat
- Product Form
- Purified IgG conjugated to Biotin - lyophilised
- Reconstitution
- Reconstitute with 0.5 ml sterile PBS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin
Care should be taken during reconstitution as the protein may appear as a film at the bottom of the vial. Bio-Rad recommend that the vial is gently mixed after reconstitution. For long term storage the addition of 0.09% sodium azide is recommended. - Antiserum Preparation
- Antisera to rat IL-6 were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared from whole serum by affinity chromatography.
- Buffer Solution
- Phosphate buffered saline
- Preservative Stabilisers
- None Present
- Carrier Free
- Yes
