Rat Interleukin 1β,IL-1β ELISA Kit

Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) is a potent pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a central role in immune responses and inflammatory processes. Activated macrophages, monocytes, and other immune cells produce this cytokine in response to pathogens and tissue damage. IL-1β acts as a key mediator in starting and amplifying inflammatory cascades. It influences fever induction, acute-phase protein synthesis, and T-helper cell activation. Dysregulation of IL-1β has been linked to numerous inflammatory diseases and autoimmune conditions, making it an important target for immunological research.

The Rat Interleukin 1β,IL-1β ELISA Kit (CSB-E08055r) provides quantitative measurement of IL-1β in rat samples using a sandwich assay principle. This kit works with serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. The detection range spans 0.156 ng/ml to 10 ng/ml with sensitivity of 0.039 ng/ml. The assay requires 50-100μl sample volume and takes 1-5 hours to complete. Detection occurs at 450 nm wavelength, giving researchers a reliable tool for studying IL-1β levels in Rattus norvegicus samples.
