Product Summary for Porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine Porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed to measure porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 in cell culture supernates, serum and plasma. It contains CHO cell-expressed recombinant porcine IL-12 and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to accurately quantitate the recombinant factor. Results obtained using natural porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 showed linear curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the Quantikine kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for naturally occurring porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40.

Recovery for Porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 spiked to three levels throughout the range of the assay in various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Supernates (n=4) | 104 | 97-113 |
| EDTA Plasma (n=4) | 92 | 84-99 |
| Heparin Plasma (n=5) | 94 | 85-105 |
| Serum (n=5) | 99 | 88-109 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples spiked with or containing porcine IL-12/IL-23 p40 in each matrix were diluted with the appropriate Calibrator Diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.

Background: IL-12/IL-23 p40
IL-12 (Interleukin-12) is a secreted heterodimeric cytokine that contains disulfide-linked p35 and p40 subunits. The p40 subunit is also a subunit of the heterodimeric IL-23. IL-12 is produced by macrophages, dendritic cells, monocytes, Langerhans cells, neutrophils, keratinocytes, microglia, and non-germinal center B cells. It acts through a receptor complex that contains the ligand binding IL-12 R alpha 1 and the signal transducing IL-12 R alpha 2. IL-12 can enhance cytotoxic activity and induce Interferon-gamma production in NK cells, T cells and dendritic epidermal T cells. In conjunction with IL-23 and IL-27, IL-12 promotes the development of a Th1 immune response.
