96 Tests PN: B112482

Components:

45x Ab-conjugated beads (S4P6 - Human GCP-2 Ab-bead). PN: B112482A. One vial containing 100 µL of anti-Human GCP-2conjugated to AimPlex Bead S4P6.

25x Biotin-detection Ab (Human GCP-2 Biotin-dAb). PN: B112482B. One vial containing 100 µL of biotinylated anti-Human GCP-2

Lyophilized Standard Mix-Human Group 7, Panel A, 8-Plex. PN: HG71008. One vial containing lyophilized recombinant Eotaxin-3, GCP-2, GROα, HCC-1, HCC-4, I-309, MCP-2, and MPIF-1. Note: If multiple analyte kits on the above target list are ordered as a panel, only one vial of standard mix is supplied for those analyte kits.

Application: Optimal antibody pair and antigen standard for assaying human CXCL6/GCP-2. Can be multiplexed with other analytes in Human Group 7.  To be used in conjunction with the AimPlex NR Basic Kit (PN: P100001) and a diluent kit. Refer to the AimPlex Multiplex Immunoassay User Manual and kit inserts for the assay procedure.

Storage:  2-8 C in the dark.

Important: Sodium azide forms explosive compounds with heavy metals. These products contain <0.05% (w/w) azide which with repeated contact with lead and copper commonly found in plumbing drains may result in the buildup of shock sensitive compounds. Dispose in accordance with regulations from your institute.

Description:

CXCL6 (Chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 6) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that is also known as Granulocyte Chemotactic Protein 2 (GCP-2). As its former name suggests, CXCL6 is a chemoattractant for neutrophilic granulocytes. It elicits its chemotactic effects by interacting with the chemokine receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2. Diseases associated with CXCL6 include periodontal disease.
