Human il 6 platinum elisa

Manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific
Sourced in France, Australia

The Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA is a laboratory assay used to quantitatively measure the concentration of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in human biological samples. It is an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) that employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique.

Quantifying HIV Reservoirs and Biomarkers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
HIV-RNA in blood plasma was quantified locally at all study-visits, by real-time PCR (Roche or Abbott) as described above for the semen.
Blood samples were centralized for total cell-associated HIV-DNA quantification. Thawed whole blood was analyzed with the same ultrasensitive real-time PCR method as described above for the semen (Generic HIV-DNA assay, Biocentric, Bandol, France) [20 (link)]. Each entire DNA extract (quantified with Nanodrop as previously described) was tested in two replicates, and the results were reported as the number of HIV-DNA copies per 106 PBMC, taking into account the whole blood cell count.
Frozen blood plasma samples from the biobank were addressed to the Paris Pasteur Institute and Inserm U1184. Levels of IL-6, IP-10, sCD14 and sCD163 were measured in duplicate with specific ELISA assays (Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA, eBioscience; Human quantikine CXCL10 ELISA, R&D ELISA R&D; Human CD14 DuoSet ELISA and Human CD163 DuoSet ELISA, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, Minnesota). Samples with undetectable levels of a given analyte were arbitrarily attributed half the minimal detectable value.

IP-10 concentrations were determined in stored plasma or serum samples (−80°C) by specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, human Quantikine CXCL10 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) according to the manufacturers’ instructions. Levels of IL-6 were measured in frozen plasma samples with specific ELISA assays (Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA, eBioscience). Samples with undetectable levels of IL-6 were arbitrarily attributed half the minimal detectable value (0.46 pg/mL).

IP-10 concentrations were determined in stored (−80 °C) plasma samples by human Quantikine CXCL10 ELISA assay (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) according to the manufacturers’ instructions. Levels of IL-6 were measured on plasma frozen samples with Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA (eBioscience, Paris, France). Samples with undetectable levels of IL-6 were attributed half the minimal detectable value (0.46 pg ml−1).

Nerve conduction studies (NCVs)

Electrophysiological studies were carried out unilaterally (right side) under a uniform protocol using a Nicolet/VIASYS Viking Quest EMG Machine [16 ]. Thirty-two to 34°C was set as the distal skin temperature. The estimated parameters included: Distal motor latency (DML), peak to baseline amplitude of compound muscle action potential (a-CMAP), and motor conduction velocity for tibial, Peroneal and ulnar nerves. Moreover, peak-to-peak amplitude of sensory action potentials (a-SAP) and sensory conduction velocity (antidromic technique) of sural and ulnar nerves were also measured.

Proinflammatory cytokines

Serum levels of proinflammatory cytokines: interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and high-sensitivity C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP) were measured before the onset of chemotherapy and one month after the cessation of treatment by Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA, Human TNF alpha Platinum ELISA (eBioscience, INC. San Diego, CA 92121, USA) and Minineph™ Human kits (Birmingham, UK) respevtively.

Comprehensive Blood Analyte Profiling

The human blood samples were analyzed for alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin and conjugated bilirubin by using routine hospital laboratory methods. Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were determined enzymatically. The plasma biochemistries for all animals were analyzed with a CHEMIX-180 multiple analyzer (Sysmex Corporation, Japan) as previously described [12 (link)]. For ELISA analysis, the human IL-6 Platinum ELISA (BMS213, eBioscience, Waltham, MA) Kit, human TNF-alpha Platinum ELISA (BMS223, eBioscience, Waltham, MA) Kit and human Neurotensin ELISA Kit (CSB-E09144h, Cusabio, Wuhan, China) were used in this study according to protocols of manufactures.

To evaluate the secretion of IL-6, IL-8 and Angiotensin II, cellular supernatant was collected subsequent to each treatment, aliquoted into eppendorf tubes, and stored at −80°C. IL-6, IL-8 and Angiotensin II concentrations were quantified using commercially available ELISA kits (Human IL-6 Platinum ELISA: BMS213/2, eBioscience, Tasmania, Australia; Human IL-8 Platinum ELISA: BMS204/3, eBioscience; Angiotensin II ELISA kit: ADI-900–204, Enzo Life Sciences, Farmingdale, USA; Bradykinin ELISA kit: ADI-900–206, Enzo Life Sciences) according to procedures recommended by the manufacturer.(5 (link), 26 (link))

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
