Dolphin IL-10 DIY ELISA Kit

Built around the anti-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin-10, this DIY-format immunoassay from Assay Genie provides the reagents researchers need to coat their own plates and quantify IL-10 directly in dolphin samples. The kit's reactivity is validated specifically for cetacean IL-10, so measurements reflect authentic dolphin cytokine concentrations rather than cross-reacting signals from rodent, human, or other mammalian homologs.

Because researchers apply the capture antibody to their own microplate wells, a single kit scales efficiently across both pilot experiments and larger cohorts, covering up to 10 plates total. Standards, detection antibody, and substrate components are supplied in quantities matched to that throughput, and should be refrigerated upon arrival and protected from light to preserve binding activity through repeated use.

The workflow runs on standard absorbance plate readers with routine ELISA wash-and-incubate equipment, and works with dolphin serum as well as cell culture supernatant from stimulated leukocytes. That flexibility supports applications in marine mammal health monitoring, comparative immunology, and stress-response studies in managed and wild dolphin populations.
