Fish Interleukin 1β (IL- 1β) ELISA Kit

Interleukin 1β (IL-1β) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a central role in immune responses and inflammatory processes across vertebrate species. Activated macrophages and monocytes produce this cytokine in response to various stimuli, including pathogens and tissue damage. IL-1β acts as a key mediator in the initiation and amplification of inflammatory cascades, promoting the recruitment and activation of immune cells. In fish immunology research, IL-1β serves as an important biomarker for studying innate immune responses, disease susceptibility, and the effects of environmental stressors on aquatic organisms.

The Fish Interleukin 1β (IL-1β) ELISA Kit (CSB-E13259Fh) is a quantitative sandwich assay designed for measuring IL-1β levels in fish samples. This kit works with serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates with a detection range of 3.12 pg/mL to 200 pg/mL and a sensitivity of 0.78 pg/mL. The assay requires 50-100 μL sample volume and can be completed within 1-5 hours. Detection occurs at 450 nm wavelength, providing researchers with a reliable tool for IL-1β quantification in fish immunological studies.
