Specifications

Product Data

• Applications: ELISA, FN, WB
• Recommended Dilution: Sandwich ELISA: In a Sandwich ELISA (assuming 100µl/well), a concentration of 2.0-4.0 µg/ml of this antibody will detect at least 1000 pg/ml of recombinant Murine IL-12 when used with Biotinylated antigen affinity purified anti-murine IL-12 (Cat.-No PP1110B) as the detection antibody at a concentration of approximately 1.0-2.0 µg/ml.
  Western Blot: To detect murine IL-12 by Western Blot analysis this antibody can be used at a concentration of 2.0-4.0 µg/ml. Used in conjunction with compatible secondary reagents the detection limit for recombinant mIL-12 is 1.0-2.0 ng/lane, under reducing conditions and 0.25-0.50 ng/lane, under non-reducing conditions.
  Neutralization: To yield one-half maximal inhibition [ND50] of the biological activity of Murine IL12 (2.0 ng/ml), a concentration of 0.16-0.24 μg/ml of this antibody is required.

• Background: Interleukin 12 (IL12) can act as a growth factor for activated T and NK cells, enhance the lytic activity of NK/lymphokine activated killer cells, and stimulate the production of IFN gamma by resting PBMC. IL12 induces IFN gamma, TNF alpha production in T and NK cells; costimulation of PBL proliferation; proliferation/differentiation of TH1 T lymphocytes. It is downregulated by IL10; homodimeric p40 antagonistic to functional p70 heterodimer. IL12R beta 1 binds p40 but when dimeric with IL12R beta 2 binds p35.
• Synonyms: IL-12A, IL-12 subunit p35, NKSF1, CLMF p35
