BD Biosciences CBA Human Th1/Th2 Cytokine Kit II Instruction Manual
The BD CBA Human Th1/Th2 Cytokine Kit II is designed to simultaneously detect Interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF), and Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) protein levels in research samples such as tissue culture supernatants, EDTA plasma, and serum. The kit utilizes bead array technology where capture beads coated with specific antibodies form sandwich complexes with analytes, which are then detected using a flow cytometer.
