Intended use
This ELISpot Flex kit is intended for the enumeration of cells secreting sheep IL-5 using the ELISpot assay. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Product details
Application - ELISpot
Analyte - IL-5
Reactivity - Sheep
Specificity - This kit is based on a matched pair of mAbs enabling specific detection of sheep IL-5.
Cross-reactivity - The mAbs react with bovine IL-5 and cross-react with IL-5 from sheep. For more information please check the Cross-reactivity guide section below.
Performance
Sheep PBMC were incubated for 40 h in the absence (200,000 cells/well) or presence (100,000 cells/well) of PMA/ionomycin and the number of cells secreting IL-5 was analyzed by ELISpot.
Species reactivities of our veterinary assays and included monoclonal antibodies are summarized in the tables below.

IL-5
Analyte description
Interleukin 5 (IL-5) is a pleiotropic cytokine primarily produced by T and NK cells. IL-5 specifically controls the survival, differentiation, and chemotaxis of eosinophils. But initially, IL-5 was characterized by its ability to support the growth and terminal differentiation of B cells.
Alternative names - Interleukin-5, IL-5, IL5, BCGF-2, TRF
