Anti-IL-6 Antibody

This unconjugated Mouse monoclonal antibody targets human Interleukin-6 (IL-6), a pleiotropic cytokine central to acute phase responses, B-cell maturation, and T-cell differentiation. Produced in mouse as an IgG1 isotype, the reagent is supplied by Antibodies.com in a 100 µl volume and is validated for Western blot (WB) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) workflows. The antibody binds the human IL-6 target and is unconjugated, allowing researchers to pair it with their preferred secondary detection reagents such as HRP-, biotin-, or fluorophore-conjugated anti-mouse IgG.

The formulation contains 1× TBS at pH 7.4 supplemented with 1% BSA and 40% glycerol as a cryoprotectant, with 0.05% sodium azide added as a preservative. For long-term storage, freeze the antibody at -20°C in aliquots to limit freeze-thaw cycles and preserve binding activity. Working aliquots may be kept refrigerated for several weeks of active use. As a research reagent specific to human IL-6, this monoclonal supports studies in inflammation, autoimmune disease models, oncology, and infectious disease research where IL-6 signaling pathways are under investigation.
