Product Summary

The Quantikine Mouse IL-20 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure mouse IL-20 in cell culture supernates, mouse serum, and plasma. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant mouse IL-20 and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural mouse IL-20 showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring mouse IL-20.

Precision

Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in separate assays to assess inter-assay precision

Recovery

The recovery of mouse IL-20 spiked to three levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.

Sample Type Average % Recovery Range %
Cell Culture Supernates (n=4) 102 91-113
EDTA Plasma (n=4) 98 91-111
Heparin Plasma (n=4) 95 88-107
Serum (n=4) 105 92-114

Linearity

To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing or spiked with high concentrations of mouse IL-20 in each matrix were diluted with Calibrator Diluent RD6-12 and then assayed.

Background: IL-20

Mature human and mouse IL-20 is a 152 amino acid protein that is not likely glycosylated. Although IL-20 is a distant member of the IL-10 family, it functions as a monomer. IL-20 binds two heterodimeric receptor complexes, IL-20 R alpha/IL-20 R beta and IL-22 R/IL-20 R beta. IL-20 is reported to induce the proliferation of multipotential hematopoietic progenitor cells, direct the differentiation and expansion of keratinocytes, and promote the release of proinflammatory mediators in keratinocytes and other IL-20 receptor-expressing cells.

Assay Procedure

Refer to the product for complete assay procedure.

Bring all reagents and samples to room temperature before use. It is recommended that all samples, standards, and controls be assayed in duplicate.
  1.   Prepare all reagents, standard dilutions, and samples as directed in the product insert.
  2.   Remove excess microplate strips from the plate frame, return them to the foil pouch containing the desiccant pack, and reseal.

  3. 50 µL Assay Diluent
  4.   Add 50 µL of Assay Diluent to each well.

  5. 50 µL Standard, Control, or Sample
  6.   Add 50 µL of Standard, Control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  7.   Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 4 times for a total of 5 washes.

  8. 100 µL Conjugate
  9.   Add 100 µL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours.
  10.   Aspirate and wash 5 times.

  11. 100 µL Substrate Solution
  12.   Add 100 µL Substrate Solution to each well. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.

  13. 100 µL Stop Solution
  14.   Add 100 µL of Stop Solution to each well. Read at 450 nm within 30 minutes. Set wavelength correction to 540 nm or 570 nm.
