Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is a potent anti-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in immune regulation and homeostasis. Regulatory T cells, macrophages, and B cells produce IL-10, which suppresses inflammatory responses by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine production and limiting antigen presentation. This immunosuppressive activity makes IL-10 essential for preventing excessive immune activation. It also maintains tissue integrity during inflammatory processes. Research into IL-10 levels provides valuable insights into immune dysfunction, autoimmune diseases, and inflammatory conditions across various species.
The Bovine Interleukin 10, IL-10 ELISA Kit (CSB-E12917B) is designed for quantitative measurement of IL-10 in Bos taurus samples. This competitive assay works with serum, plasma, and tissue homogenates. The detection range spans 5 pg/mL to 1000 pg/mL with sensitivity of 2.5 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 bovine IL-10 quantification in immunological studies.
