Porcine Chemokine C-C motif ligand 8 ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: CCL8 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing an anti-CCL8 antibody and an CCL8-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CCL8-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the CCL8 concentration since CCL8 from samples and CCL8-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CCL8 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CCL8 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CCL8-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CCL8 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This antimicrobial gene is one of several chemokine genes clustered on the q-arm of chromosome 17. Chemokines form a superfamily of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes. The superfamily is divided into four subfamilies based on the arrangement of N-terminal cysteine residues of the mature peptide. This chemokine is a member of the CC subfamily which is characterized by two adjacent cysteine residues. This cytokine displays chemotactic activity for monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. By recruiting leukocytes to sites of inflammation this cytokine may contribute to tumor-associated leukocyte infiltration and to the antiviral state against HIV infection.

Uniprot Description
CCL8: Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. May play a role in neoplasia and inflammatory host responses. This protein can bind heparin. The processed form MCP-2(6-76) does not show monocyte chemotactic activity, but inhibits the chemotactic effect most predominantly of CCL7, and also of CCL2 and CCL5 and CCL8. Belongs to the intercrine beta (chemokine CC) family.

Product Notes
The Porcine CCL-8 ccl8 (Catalog #AAA746289) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA746289 ELISA Kit recognizes Porcine CCL-8. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Chemokine C-C motif ligand 8, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
