Description

The C15.6 antibody reacts with mouse IL-12 p40 subunit of the IL-12 p70 and IL-23 p40 subunit of the IL-23 p19/p40, as well as p40 monomer and homodimer, or heterodimer. The C15.6 antibody can not neutralize the bioactivity of natural or recombinant IL-12.

IHC-F, IP, WB - Reported in the literature, not verified in house
Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For ELISA capture applications, a concentration range of 1.0 - 4.0 µg/ml is recommended. To obtain a linear standard curve, serial dilutions of IL-12 recombinant protein ranging from 250 to 2 pg/ml are recommended for each ELISA plate. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Application Notes

ELISA or ELISPOT Capture1,2,4,6,8,10: The purified C15.6 antibody is useful as the capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA or ELISPOT assay, when used in conjunction with the biotinylated C17.8 (Cat. No. 505302) antibody as the detecting antibody. This assay detects p40 as monomer, homodimer, or heterodimer complexed with p35. The LEAF™ purified antibody is suggested for ELISPOT capture.
Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats) include: immunohistochemical staining9 of paraformaldehyde-fixed saponin-treated frozen tissue sections, immunoprecipitation3, and Western blotting3.
Note: For testing mouse IL-12 p40 (monomer, dimer, heteromer) in serum or plasma, BioLegend's ELISA Max™ Sets (Cat. No. 431601 to 431606) are specially developed and recommended.
