IL-2 is a powerful immunoregulatory lymphokine produced by T-cells in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation.
IL-2/IL-2R signaling is required for T-cell proliferation and other fundamental functions that are essential for the immune response.
IL-2 stimulates growth and differentiation of B-cells, NK cells, lymphokine-activated killer cells, monocytes, macrophages and oligodendrocytes.
The BioGems Murine IL-2 Pre-Coated ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is a solid phase immunoassay specially designed to measure Murine IL-2 with a 96-well strip plate that is pre-coated with rat monoclonal antibody specific for IL-2.
It contains E.coli-expressed recombinant Murine IL-2.
The detection antibody is a biotinylated goat polyclonal antibody specific for IL-2.
The kit is analytically validated with ready to use reagents.
