IL-1 is a name that designates two proteins, IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta, that are the products of distinct genes, but recognize the same cell surface receptors. IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta are structurally related polypeptides that show approximately 25% homology at the amino acid level. Both proteins are produced by a wide variety of cells in response to stimuli such as those produced by inflammatory agents, infections, or microbial endotoxins.

Product Summary:
The Quantikine Rat IL-1 beta Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure rat IL-1 beta in cell culture supernates, serum, and EDTA plasma. It contains recombinant rat IL-1 beta and antibodies raised against recombinant rat IL-1 beta. This immunoassay has been shown to quantitate the recombinant rat factor accurately.
Precision:
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay)Three samples of known concentration were tested on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays)Three samples of known concentration were tested in separate assays to assess inter-assay precision.

Linearity:
To assess the linearity of the assay, five or more samples spiked with various concentrations of rat IL-1 beta in each matrix were diluted with Calibrator Diluent and then assayed.
