Proteome Profiler Human XL Cytokine Array Kit Best Seller

A membrane-based antibody array for the parallel determination of the relative levels of selected human cytokines and chemokines. Validated for analyte detection in cell culture supernates, cell lysates, tissue lysates, serum, plasma, human milk and saliva.

Principle of the Array

The Proteome Profiler Human XL Cytokine Array Kit is a membrane-based sandwich immunoassay. Capture antibodies spotted in duplicate on nitrocellulose membranes bind to specific target proteins present in the sample (Step 1). Captured proteins are detected with biotinylated detection antibodies (Step 2) and then visualized using chemiluminescent detection reagents (Step 3). The signal produced is proportional to the amount of analyte bound.

Why Use an Antibody Array to Detect Multiple Cytokines?

Determining the expression of multiple cytokines in a single sample can be expensive, time consuming and can require specialized equipment. Performing multiple immunoprecipitations and Western blots requires time, labor, and reagents. The use of a multiplex antibody array to detect multiple cytokines in a single sample can be cost-effective and also save time and sample.
