Category | Antibodies |
Description | IL6 antibody |
Species/Host | Rabbit |
Clonality | Polyclonal |
Tested applications | ELISA, IHC, WB |
Reactivity | Human |
Isotype | IgG |
Immunogen | This purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with mature length recombinant human IL-6 produced in E.coli. |
Concentration | 1.0 mg/mL |
Dilution range | ELISA: 1:10,000, IHC: 1:200 - 1:1,000, WB: 1:300 - 1:1,000 |
Form/Appearance | Lyophilized |
Purity | IL-6 antibody detects recombinant and native IL-6 present in body fluids and cell supernatants in various assays (ie. IL-1 stimulated IL-6 production from fibroblasts). In Western blot analysis of natural cell products or human body fluids, multiple bands of IL-6 will appear due to the variable amount of glycosylation on the molecule. The antiserum is also useful for neutralization of human of IL-6 activity in bioassays. For neutralization, incubate the sample with a 1:400 dilution of the antiserum for at least 4 hours before being tested. A control of similarly diluted normal rabbit IgG (heat inactivated) is recommended. In neutralization experiments in vitro, this antibody does not result in enhanced activity of IL-6. However, because antibodies to IL-6 may act as a soluble receptor in vivo, some antibodies to IL-6 act as carriers and enhance IL-6 activity. This product has minimal reactivity with mouse IL-6. |

Storage | Store vial at 4° C prior to restoration. For extended storage aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. |
Buffer/Preservatives | None |

Note | For research use only |
Application notes | This purified antibody has been tested for use in IHC and western blotting. Reactivity is also expected in ELISA, neutralizations, radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry. The endotoxin content is estimated to be < 10 pg/µl by the LAL method. By western blot a band approximately 23.7 kDa in size corresponding to native human IL-6 protein is expected in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. |
Expiration Date | 12 months from date of receipt. |
Immunohistochemistry of Rabbit Anti-IL6-Antibody. Tissue: human lymph nodes at pH9. Fixation: formalin fixed paraffin embedded. Antigen retrieval: not required. Primary antibody: Anti-IL-6 antibody at 10 µg/mL for 1 h at RT. Secondary antibody: Peroxidase rabbit secondary antibody at 1:10000 for 45 min at RT. Localization: IL-6 is cytoplasmic. Staining: IL-6 as precipitated brown signal (B 20x, B 40x) hematoxylin purple nuclear counterstain. Negative Control (A 20x).
Western blot using Biorbyt's anti-Human IL6 antibody shows detection of a band ~24 kDa in size corresponding to recombinant human IL6 (arrowhead). Molecular weight markers are also shown. After transfer, the membrane was blocked overnight with 1% BSA in TTBS followed by reaction with primary antibody at a 1:500 dilution. Detection occurred using HRP conjugated anti-Rabbit IgG (p/n orb347654) secondary antibody diluted 1:40000 in blocking buffer (p/n orb348637) and FemtoMax™ Chemiluminescent substrate.
