Representative sandwich immunoassay standard curve generated using serial dilutions of LEGEND MAX™ Human IL-8 Standard ranging from 0.78 pg/mL to 50 pg/mL.
Human IL-8 (CXCL8, neutrophil chemotactic factor, neutrophil activating protein, monocyte-derived neutrophil chemotactic factor) is a member of the alpha (C-X-C) subfamily of chemokines. In response to pro-inflammatory stimuli, IL-8 is produced by monocytes, macrophages, T cells, neutrophils, and fibroblasts. IL-8 promotes neutrophil chemotaxis and degranulation, leading to local inflammation in damaged or infected tissues. In addition, IL-8 plays multiple roles in cancer formation, including promoting angiogenesis, cancer cell proliferation, and cancer cell migration.
The BioLegend LEGEND MAX™ High Sensitivity Human IL-8 ELISA Kit is a sandwich Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) with a 96-well strip plate that is pre-coated with a mouse monoclonal anti-human IL-8 capture antibody. The detection antibody is a biotinylated mouse monoclonal anti-human IL-8 antibody. After washing away any unbound biotinylated detection antibody, a streptavidin-polymer HRP is used for detection. This kit is specifically designed for the accurate quantitation of IL-8 in human serum, citrate/heparin plasma, cell culture supernatant, urine, and saliva samples. This kit is analytically validated with ready-to-use reagents.

Related FAQs
- In your LEGEND MAX™ ELISA Kits, there is a step that calls for washing the plates before adding sample. What is the purpose of this step?
-
We typically use a stabilizer for pre-coated plates. The additional washing step is designed to remove these components before you start the assay. If you do not perform the washing, the effect on assay performance is negligible.
- I have multiple LEGEND MAX™ ELISA kits that I want to run simultaneously. Can I use the same wash buffer for all the kits?
-
The wash buffer provided in all our LEGEND MAX™ kits is the same and the part numbers on the wash buffer bottles in these kits should be identical. For ELISA MAX™ Deluxe and ELISA MAX™ Standard Sets, we provide a recipe for the wash buffer on each kit’s technical data sheet. This recipe is the same for all ELISA MAX™ sets.
- For some of your ELISA kits, why do my serum samples require dilution with assay buffer?
-
In some cases, dilution with assay buffer is required to minimize the matrix difference between the samples and the standards to achieve better accuracy.
