Gene Information

human ... IL6(3569)

Specificity

Recognizes natural and recombinant forms of human Interleukin-6 with an affinity of 0.5 nM. Inhibits IL-6 binding to its receptors and blocks Interleukin-6 induced proliferation on B9 cells.

Immunogen

Recombinant human IL-6.

Application

Blocks Interleukin-6 induced proliferation on B9 cells: 20pg of antibody neutralizes the activity of 1U of IL-6. It is recommended that the sodium azide is removed from the antibody prior to use in this application.

Immunohistochemistry on frozen sections

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
