The Rat Interleukin-16 (IL16) ELISA Kit is a highly sensitive and specific assay designed for the accurate detection of interleukin-16 levels in rat serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. This kit provides reliable and reproducible results, making it suitable for various research applications.Interleukin-16 is a key cytokine that plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune responses and inflammation. It is involved in various biological processes, including T-cell activation, recruitment, and migration, making it an important biomarker for studying immune-related diseases, such as autoimmune disorders and allergies.
With its high-quality components and optimized protocols, the Rat Interleukin-16 (IL16) ELISA Kit is an essential tool for researchers seeking to investigate the role of interleukin-16 in health and disease. Start uncovering the secrets of immune regulation with this advanced ELISA kit from Assay Genie.
Matrices listed below were spiked with certain level of recombinant the index and the recovery rates were calculated by comparing the measured value to the expected amount of the index in samples.

Linearity:
The linearity of the kit was assayed by testing samples spiked with appropriate concentration of the index and their serial dilutions. The results were demonstrated by the percentage of calculated concentration to the expected.

Intra-assay Precision:
Intra-Assay: CV <10%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision:
Inter-Assay: CV <12%. 3 samples with low, middle and high level the index were tested on 3 different plates, 8 replicates in each plate.
Stability:
The stability of ELISA kit is determined by the loss rate of activity. The loss rate of this kit is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage conditions. Note: To minimize unnecessary influences on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity and incubator temperatures should be strictly regulated. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same experimenter from the beginning to the end.
