Scientific Data Images for Human/Primate IL-2 Antibody

IL-2 in Human PBMCs.

IL-2 was detected in immersion fixed human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) stimulated with PMA and ionomycin using 10 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human/Primate IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB602) for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained with the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue).

Human IL-2 ELISA Standard Curve

Recombinant Human IL-2 (Catalog # 202-IL) was serially diluted and captured by Mouse Anti-Human/Primate IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB602) coated on a Clear Polystyrene Microplate (Catalog # DY990). Goat Anti-Human IL-2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-202-NA) was biotinylated and incubated with the protein captured on the plate. Detection of the standard curve was achieved by incubating Streptavidin-HRP (Catalog # DY998)

Background: IL-2

Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a cytokine that stimulates the growth and differentiation of B cells, T cells, NK cells, and monocyte/macrophages. It functions through the heterotrimeric IL-2 receptor comprising alpha, beta, and gamma chains.
