Il 18

Manufactured by Cloud-Clone
Sourced in United States

The IL-18 is a laboratory equipment used for the detection and quantification of the cytokine Interleukin-18 (IL-18) in various biological samples. It functions as an analytical tool to measure IL-18 levels, which is important for research related to inflammatory processes and immune system responses.

After the treatments, cell culture supernatants were cleared of cell debris by centrifugation at 1000 rpm for 20 min, and the concentrations of LDH (SEB864Ra, Cloud-Clone Corp, CCC, USA), CK-MB (SEA479Ra, Cloud-Clone Corp, CCC, USA), IL-1β (SEA563Ra, Cloud-Clone Corp, CCC, USA), and IL-18 (SEA064Ra, Cloud-Clone Corp, CCC, USA) were measured using ELISA kits according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The absorbance of each well at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader.

The IL-10, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), IFN-α, IFN-β, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and CXCL13 enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits were purchased from MyBioSource (Vancouver, DC, USA), while the IL-2, IL-17, IL-18, IL-1β, and CXCL1 ELISA kits were purchased from Cloud Clone Corp (Wuhan, China). The level of cytokines in the serum was measured according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Serum Cytokine Profiling by ELISA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The levels of TNF-α, IL-10 and IL-1β (eBioscience, USA) as well as IL-12, IL-13, IL-15, and IL-18 (Cloud-Clone Corp, CCC, USA) were estimated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits according to manufacturer's instructions. All coated wells for all determined cytokines were incubated with diluted serum samples as well as two-fold serial dilutions of each standard cytokine. After that, anti-rat antibodies (biotinylated conjugate) were added into each well and incubated for 2 h at room temperature (RT). After period of incubation and washing, streptavidin-HRP (diluted color development enzyme) was added for 1 h at RT. Then, unbound streptavidin was removed by washing followed by tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate incubation in the dark as a color developing agent within 30 min. At the end, the reaction of the enzyme was terminated when a stop solution was added. The formed colored product is proportional to amount of serum cytokine. The absorbance was measured at 450 nm by ELISA reader (Das, Italy). The cytokine concentration was calculated from the standard curve and expressed as pg/ml.

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.
