Bio-Plex Pro™ Mouse Cytokine 8-plex Assay

The Bio-Plex Pro Mouse Cytokine 8-Plex Immunoassay is a 1 x 96-well kit that includes coupled magnetic beads, detection antibodies, standards, assay buffer, wash buffer, sample diluent, standard diluent, detection antibody diluent, streptavidin-PE, a flat bottom plate, and sealing tape. This multiplex assay detects:

• GM-CSF
• IFN-γ
• IL-1β
• IL-2
• IL-4
• IL-5
• IL-10
• TNF-α

Based on 6.5 µm magnetic beads, it is compatible with both vacuum and magnetic wash stations. Magnetic washing simplifies plate processing, provides increased throughput, and results in decreased variability and increased reproducibility.

Key Features

• Magnetic beads for simplified plate processing
• All-in-one, space-saving complete kit
• Premixed standards for generation of curves over a broad dynamic range for each target

Other Assay Formats Available

• Custom premixed assays — available as Bio-Plex^® x-Plex™ Assays
• Custom assays (mixed at the bench) — available as Bio-Plex Express Assays
• Singleplex sets (each set includes a vial of coupled magnetic beads and a vial of detection bodies; requires a reagent kit for magnetic separation (12002798) and a vial of standards (171I50001) for a complete assay)
