Quick Overview for IL-6 antibody (ABIN208766)

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

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This IL-6 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Neutralization (Neut), Functional Studies (Func)

Product Details anti-IL-6 Antibody

Specificity: Neutralizes mouse interleukin 6 (IL-6). It does not cross-react with LPS (the component of the bacterial cell wall which is considered responsible for the toxicity of gram-negative bacteria) and TNF-alpha nor does it bind to either human or rat IL-6. Inhibits IL-6 induced proliferation of the B9 assay.

Purification: Purified

Immunogen:

Type of Immunogen: Native protein

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Approved: Func, Neut

Usage: Can be used for in vitro and in vivo inhibition of activity of IL-6. Furthermore the antibody is useful for Immunochemical investigations of mouse IL-6 in structural studies and for quantitative/qualitative immunochemical detection methods. May be used as a coating antibody in immunoassay procedures. For neutralization of biological activity dilutions have to be made according to the amount of IL-6 to be inactivated. Before use in biological assays, the product must be filter sterilized and depending on the concentration to be used dialyzed against culture medium to remove the sodium azide added. Please inquire for availability of azide free solutions.
