Porcine IL-18 PharmaGenie ELISA Kit (SBRS1583)

The Porcine IL-18 PharmaGenie ELISA Kit from Assay Genie enables quantitative measurement of interleukin-18 in swine-derived samples, supporting immunology research, vaccine efficacy studies, and infectious disease investigations in livestock models. Interleukin-18 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine produced by activated macrophages and other immune cells, and quantifying its levels helps characterize innate immune responses in pigs under experimental challenge or vaccination protocols.

The kit is configured for 96 individual determinations and includes pre-coated microplate wells, capture and detection antibodies, recombinant porcine IL-18 reference standard, wash buffer concentrate, substrate solution, and stop reagent. Researchers load a 100 uL sample volume per well after appropriate dilution and generate a standard curve to interpolate target concentrations from optical density readings.

Storage: unopened components should be stored at -20°C, protected from light, and kept sealed in the foil pouch until first use to prevent moisture damage and preserve antibody binding activity. Reconstituted standards are best divided into single-use aliquots to minimize freeze-thaw cycles across repeated experimental runs. This product is intended for research use only and is not validated for clinical diagnostic applications.
