Product Summary The Quantikine Human IP-10 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure human IP-10 in cell culture supernates, serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. It contains E. coli-expressed recombinant human IP-10 and has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural human IP-10 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 IP-10. Preparation and Storage Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature.

Background: CXCL10/IP-10/CRG-2IP-10 was originally identified as an IFN-gamma-inducible gene in monocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. The mouse homolog of human IP-10, CRG-2, shares approximately 67% amino acid sequence identity with human IP-10. The amino acid sequence of IP-10 identified the protein as a member of the CXC chemokine subfamily. Long Name: | IP-10 | Entrez Gene IDs: | 3627 (Human); 15945 (Mouse) | Alternate Names: | C7; chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10; CRG2; CRG-2; CXCL10; gIP-10; IFI10; INP10; IP-10; mob-1; SCYB10 |
Assay Procedure Refer to the product datasheet for the 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. Add 50 μL of Assay Diluent to each well. 4. Add 50 μL of Standard, control, or sample to each well. Cover with a plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. 5. Aspirate each well and wash, repeating the process 4 times for a total of 5 washes. 6. Add 100 μL of Conjugate to each well. Cover with a new plate sealer, and incubate at room temperature for 2 hours. 7. Aspirate and wash 5 times. 8. Add 100 μL Substrate Solution to each well. 9. 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. |
