HTRF Human IL-11 Detection Kit, 500 Assay Points

Assay Principle

Cell supernatant sample or standard is dispensed directly into the assay plate for the detection by HTRF® reagents (384-well low-volume white plate or Revvity low-volume 96-well plate in 20 µL). The antibodies labeled with the HTRF donor and acceptor are pre-mixed and added in a single dispensing step, to further streamline the assay procedure. The assay can be run up to a 1536-well format by simply resizing each addition volume proportionally.

Intra-assay (n=24)

Each of the 3 samples was measured 24 times, and the %CV for the concentration was calculated for each sample.

Inter-assay (n=4)

Each of the samples was measured in 4 different experiments, and the %CV for the concentration was calculated for each sample.

IL11 secretion of MDA-MB 231 stimulated with TGFb

Human MDA-MB 231 cells were plated at 400,000 cells/well in a 96-well plate and cultured overnight under 100 µL of complete L15 Glutamax cell culture medium, 37°C, at atmospheric CO2 concentration. The cells were then stimulated with increasing concentrations of TGFb (0,05 to 100 µg/mL) prepared in 200µl of 1% BSA L15 Glutamax medium. After 24h of stimulation, 16 µL of supernatant were transferred into a white detection plate to be analyzed with the Human IL11 assay. The HTRF signal was recorded after an overnight incubation.
