Product Summary for Mouse IL-12 p70 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine Mouse IL-12 p70 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure mouse IL-12 p70 in cell culture supernates and mouse serum. It contains recombinant mouse IL-12 expressed in Sf 21 insect cells using a baculovirus expression vector and antibodies raised against recombinant mouse IL-12. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural mouse IL-12 showed linear curves that were parallel to the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural mouse IL-12 p70.

| Cell Culture Supernates (n=7) | 101 | 95-106 |
| Serum (n=7) | 97 | 88-104 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples containing and/or spiked with various concentrations of mouse IL-12 p70 in each matrix were diluted with Calibrator Diluent and assayed.

Background: IL-12 p70
Interleukin 12 (IL-12), also known as natural killer cell stimulatory factor (NKSF) or cytotoxic lymphocyte maturation factor (CLMF), is a heterodimeric pleiotropic cytokine made up of a 40 kDa (p40) subunit and a 35 kDa (p35) subunit. The IL-12 p40 subunit is shared by IL-23, another heterodimeric cytokine that has biological activities similar to, as well as distinct from, IL-12. IL-12 is produced by macrophages and B cells and has been shown to have multiple effects on T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. While mouse IL-12 is active on both human and mouse cells, human IL-12 is not active on mouse cells.
