BD™ Cytometric Bead Array (CBA) Mouse IL-4 Flex Set
(RUO)Example BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set standard curve. Data acquired on a BD FACSArray bioanalyzer and analyzed using FCAP Array Software.
Reproducibility: The inter-assay and intra-assay reproducibility were determined for the BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set by evaluating ten replicates of three different sample levels (inter-assay) and two replicates of three different sample levels from four separate experiments (intra-assay) respectively.
Recovery: Cell culture supernatant and pooled mouse serum were spiked with three different levels of protein. The spiked samples were assayed and the results were compared with expected values. Serum samples were diluted 1:4 before the protein was spiked into each. Serum used was commercially available pooled mouse serum.
Linearity: Cell culture supernatant and 1:4 diluted pooled mouse serum were spiked with protein and serially diluted. The diluted samples were assayed and the results were compared with the original spiked sample.

Any use of products other than the permitted use without the express written authorization of Becton, Dickinson and Company is strictly prohibited.
Description
The BD™ CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set is a bead-based immunoassay capable of measuring mouse interleukin-4 (IL-4) in serum and cell culture supernatant samples. Mouse reactivity was determined by testing samples with the BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set. The biology and function of IL-4 has been extensively reviewed in the literature. For more information on bead-based immunoassays, refer to the product insert for the BD CBA Mouse/Rat Soluble Protein Master Buffer Kit (Cat. No. 558266 or 558267).
Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
The BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set must be used in conjunction with a BD CBA Mouse/Rat Soluble Protein Master Buffer Kit (Cat. No. 558266, 100 tests, or 558267, 500 tests), a flow cytometer, and FCAP Array™ Software. Detailed instructions on the use of this product can be found in the manual for the BD CBA Mouse/Rat Soluble Protein Master Buffer Kit. When following the directions in the Master Buffer Kit, the top standard point for the BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set will be 2,500 pg/mL. An example standard curve is shown in figure 1.
The BD CBA Mouse IL-4 Flex Set should not be used in the same assay well with any non-BD CBA Mouse Soluble Protein Flex Set reagents (such as BD CBA Human or Rat Soluble Protein or Cell Signaling Flex Sets). For an updated assay compatibility chart for the BD CBA Mouse Soluble Protein Flex Sets, please refer to the BD CBA Flex Set System homepage at http://www.bdbiosciences.com/cbasetup.
Performance
Limit of Detection: The theoretical limit of detection is 0.3 pg/mL and was determined by evaluating the estimated result of the average MFI of the negative control (0 pg/mL, n=30) + 2 standard deviations.
