General description

With a similarity to humans in heart size, blood flow rate, skin, liver enzymes and bone healing, porcine models have replaced many canine and non-human primate models in many research areas such as cardiovascular, toxicology, pharmacology, aging and bone. “Minipigs,” bred to retain the similar heart size and function as humans, but age without growing too large, have been used for long term preclinical or multi-generational studies which may be performed in a comparatively short period of time.

MILLIPLEX® Porcine Cytokine/Chemokine Panel can be used for the simultaneous quantification of any or all of the following analytes in porcine tissue/cell lysate and culture supernatant samples and serum or plasma samples: GM-CSF, IFNγ, IL-1α, IL-1ra, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, IL-18 and TNFα. This kit uses a 96-well format, contains a lyophilized standard cocktail, two internal assay quality controls and can measure up to 38 samples in duplicate.

The Luminex® xMAP® platform uses a magnetic bead immunoassay format for ideal speed and sensitivity to quantitate multiple analytes simultaneously, dramatically improving productivity while conserving valuable sample volume.

Panel Type: Cytokines/Chemokines

Specificity

Cross-reactivity between the antibodies and any of the other analytes in this panel is non-detectable or negligible.

Application

  • Analytes: GM-CSF, IFNγ, IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-1Ra, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8 (CXCL8), IL-10, IL-12, IL-18, TNF-α
  • Recommended Sample Type: serum, plasma or cell/tissue culture supernatants or lysate
  • Recommended Sample Dilution: 25 μL per well of undiluted serum or plasma; cell/tissue culture samples may require dilution in an appropriate control medium.
  • NOTE: Extra centrifugation and attention may be needed for samples with extremely high lipid content.
  • Assay Run Time: Overnight (16-18 hours) at 2-8°C.
  • Research Category: Inflammation & Immunology

Features and Benefits

Design your multiplex kit by choosing available analytes within this panel.

Storage and Stability

Recommended storage for kit components is 2 - 8°C.

Other Notes

Sensitivity: Refer to kit protocol for sensitivities of individual biomarkers.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  

  1. Do you have recommendations for testing synovial fluid in the Milliplex kits?

    1 answer

    1. The synovial fluid guidelines provided have not been validated, but the following recommendations can be considered:

      **Synovial Fluid Guidelines**

      1. Run a standard curve with an additional standard point compared to the standard protocol in a buffer matrix.
      2. Add 100 µl buffer + 25 µl standard/sample.
      3. Agitate for 10 minutes at room temperature (RT).
      4. Add 25 µl beads.
      5. Incubate with agitation overnight at 4°C.
      6. Follow the protocol for Det Ab and SA-PE steps.
      7. Resuspend the beads in 200 µl of 1X Wash Buffer before loading onto the LMX.
