Human Cytokine Array Kit, Panel A

Introduction

R&D Systems Human Cytokine Array, Panel A (Catalog # ARY005) is a rapid, sensitive, and economical tool used to simultaneously detect the relative levels of 36 different cytokines, chemokines, and acute phase proteins in a single sample. No specialized equipment is necessary.

Simultaneously detect the levels of these cytokines, chemokines, and acute phase proteins in a single sample.

General Assay Principle

Carefully selected capture antibodies have been spotted in duplicate on nitrocellulose membranes. Cell culture supernatant, serum, or plasma samples are diluted and mixed with a cocktail of biotinylated detection antibodies. The sample/antibody mixture is then incubated with the array. Any cytokine/detection antibody complex present is bound by its cognate immobilized capture antibody on the membrane. Streptavidin-Horseradish Peroxidase and chemiluminescent detection reagents* are added and a signal is produced in proportion to the amount of cytokine bound.
