Human IL-13 ELISA Kit (HUEB0020)

Assay Genie offers a Sandwich ELISA Kit designed for the quantitative measurement of human Interleukin-13 (IL-13) in biological samples. The assay uses a colorimetric detection method and is intended for research use only, supporting studies in immunology and related fields such as allergic inflammation and asthma research.

The kit detects both natural and recombinant human IL-13 and is validated for use with serum, plasma, tissue homogenates, cell culture supernates, and other biological fluids. According to the manufacturer's specifications, the assay has a detection range of 15.6-1000 pg/mL, a sensitivity of 4.8 pg/mL, an intra-assay CV of 4.6%, and an inter-assay CV of 6.5%. Reported recovery in serum is 95-107% and in plasma is 97-109%, with linearity data provided for serum, EDTA plasma, and heparin plasma across serial dilutions.

IL-13 is a secreted cytokine that inhibits inflammatory cytokine production, synergises with IL-2 in regulating interferon-gamma synthesis, and plays a critical role in inflammatory and immune responses, making it a relevant target for studies into allergic rhinitis, asthma susceptibility, and related conditions.
