IL-6 antibody (Biotin)

Catalog No. ABIN964774

Product Details anti-IL-6 Antibody (Biotin)

Target: IL-6 (IL6) (Interleukin 6 (IL6))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This IL-6 antibody is conjugated to Biotin

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Neutralization (Neut), Radioimmunoassay (RIA)

Specificity: This purified antibody has been heated to 56°C for 30 minutes. In ELISA and other immunoreactive assays, this antibody will recognize both native and recombinant human Il-6 in cell supernatants and certain body fluids. In Western blot analysis of natural cell products or human body fluids, multiple bands of IL-6 will appear due to the variable amount of glycosylation on the molecule. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG is recommended. This product has minimal reactivity with mouse IL-6.

Characteristics: IL-6 is a secreted cytokine with a wide variety of biological functions. It is a potent inducer of the acute phase response and plays an essential role in the final differentiation of B-cells into Ig-secreting cells Involved in lymphocyte and monocyte differentiation. IL-6 induces myeloma and plasmacytoma growth and induces nerve cells differentiation and acts on B-cells, T-cells, hepatocytes, hematopoeitic progenitor cells and cells of the CNS. IL-6 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.

Purification: purified

Immunogen: This purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with full length recombinant human IL-6 produced in E.coli.
Immunogen Type: RecombinantProtein

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: This purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blotting. Reactivity is also expected in neutralizations, radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. The endotoxin content is estimated to be <10 pg/µl by the LAL method. By western blot a band approximately 23.7 kDa in size corresponding to native human IL-6 protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user.
