IL-5 Antibody (biotin) | XP-5191Bt | Gentaur UK, US & Europe Distribution

Host: Rabbit

Reactivity: Human

Homology: N/A

Immunogen: Produced from sera of rabbits pre-immunized with highly pure (>98%) recombinant hIL-5 (human IL-5) .

Research Area: Immunology, Chemokines & Cytokines, Antibody Pairs

Tested Application: E, WB

Application: ELISA:
Sandwich:
To detect hIL-5 by sandwich ELISA (using 100 μL/well antibody solution) a concentration of 0.25 - 1.0 μg/mL of this antibody is required. This biotinylated polyclonal antibody, in conjunction with our Polyclonal Anti-Human IL-5 (XP-5191) as a capture antibody, allows the detection of at least 0.2 - 0.4 ng/well of recombinant hIL-5.
Western Blot:
To detect hIL-5 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 0.1 - 0.2 μg/mL. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant hIL-5 is 1.5 - 3.0 ng/lane, under either reducing or non-reducing conditions.

User Note: Centrifuge vial prior to opening.

BACKGROUND: Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is a cytokine produced primarily by activated T lymphocytes. It exists as an antiparallel disulfide linked homodimeric glycoprotein with 115 amino acid residues in each chain. Known also as EDF (eosinophil differentiating factor) , functions predominantly as an eosinophilopoietic factor. Analysis of its crystal structure reveals a novel two domain structure, with each domain showing significant homology to the cytokine fold in GMCSF, MCSF, IL-2, IL-4 and growth hormone. Human and mouse IL-5 have 70% amino acid sequence homology.
