Components:

45x Ab-conjugated beads (S4P7 - human IL-27 Ab-bead). PN: B111167A. One vial containing 100 µL of anti-human IL-27 conjugated to AimPlex Bead S4P7.

25x Biotin-detection Ab (human IL-27 Biotin-dAb). PN: B111167B. One vial containing 100 µL of biotinylated anti-human IL-27.

Lyophilized Standard Mix-Human Group 3 Panel B, 12-Plex. PN: HG3012B. One vial containing lyophilized recombinant human IL-9, IL-15, IL-16, IL-17C, IL-23p19, IL-24, IL-27, IL-31, IL-32, IL-34, OSM, and SCF.  Note: If multiple analyte kits on the above target list are ordered as a panel, only one vial of standard mix is supplied for those analyte kits.

Application: Optimal antibody pair and antigen standard for assaying human IL-27.  Can be multiplexed with other analytes in Human Group 3.  To be used in conjunction with the AimPlex NR Basic Kit (PN: P100001) and a diluent kit. Refer to the AimPlex Multiplex Immunoassay User Manual and kit inserts for the assay procedure.

Storage:  2-8 C in the dark.

Important: Sodium azide forms explosive compounds with heavy metals. These products contain <0.05% (w/w) azide which with repeated contact with lead and copper commonly found in plumbing drains may result in the buildup of shock sensitive compounds. Dispose in accordance with regulations from your institute.

Description:

Interleukin 27 (IL27) is a heterodimeric cytokine belonging to the IL-12 family that is composed of two subunits; Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-induced gene 3 (EBI3) (also known as IL-27B) and IL27-p28 (known as IL-30). IL-27 is produced by antigen-presenting cells. IL-27 plays an important function in regulating the activity of B- and T-lymphocytes. The effects of IL-27 are eliciting by its interaction with a specific cell-surface receptor complex composed of two proteins known as IL27R and gp130. Diseases associated with IL27 include eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis and posterior uveitis.
