| Background Information: | The PathHunter® IL6RA/IL6ST Bioassay kit provides an easy-to-use cell based assay to measure drug potency and detect neutralizing antibodies. This bioassay assesses IL-6-induced dimerization of IL6RA/IL6ST receptors. This product uses EFC technology. The cell line included overexpresses IL6ST target protein fused to PK alongside IL6R target protein fused to EA. Upon ligand-induced dimerization of IL6RA/IL6ST, detectable EFC signal is produced. Bioassay kits are a convenient, ready-to-use format which contains all materials needed to run the assay, including single-use vials of cryopreserved cells, cell plating media, control agonist, detection reagent, and assay plates. |
