Questions? Please consult our answers to frequently asked questions at http://www.ebioscience.com/faq. DescriptionThe C8.6 antibody reacts with the p40 subunit of human IL-12 p70 and human IL-23. IL-12 is a 70 kDa heterodimeric cytokine composed of two covalently linked chains, p40 and p35, and secreted primarily by activated monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. IL-23 is a biologically-related, heterodimeric cytokine composed of disulfide-linked p40 and p19 subunits. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The C8.6 antibody has been reported for use ELISA, neutralization, and intracellular staining for flow cytometric analysis. Applications TestedThe Functional Grade Purified C8.6 antibody has been tested by LAL assay to verify low endotoxin levels and has been tested for ELISA detection and in bioassay for neutralization of IL-12 p70 and IL-23 bioactivity. The C8.6 antibody at 60.0 ng/ml has been found to inhibit by 50% the biological effects of 1 ng/ml human IL-12 p70 (14-8129) or human IL-23 (14-8239), in corresponding bioassay. Detailed information and protocols about cytokine bioassays and in vitro cytokine neutralization using antibodies can be found in the BestProtocols section. References
