IL-6 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN964743

Product Details anti-IL-6 Antibody

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

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This IL-6 antibody is un-conjugated

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

Specificity: This purified antibody detects recombinant and native IL-6 present in body fluids and cell supernatants in various assays (ie. IL-1 stimulated IL-6 production from fibroblasts). 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.

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. Anti-IL-6 antibody antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cancer, Neuroscience and Immunology research.

Purification: purified

Sterility: Sterile filtered

Immunogen: This Protein A purified monoclonal antibody was produced in mouse by repeated immunizations with mature full length recombinant human IL-6 produced in E.coli followed by hybridoma development.
Immunogen Type: RecombinantProtein

Clone: 33A12-G9

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: Anti-IL-6 antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, Flow Cytometry, 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.
