Human IL-5 ELISA Standard Curve. Purified TRFK5 antibody is used with the Biotin Rat Anti-Human IL-5 antibody (Cat. No. 554491) and Recombinant Human IL-5 (Cat. No. 554606) as the standard.

Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
ELISA Capture: For a mouse IL-5 ELISA, purified TRFK5 antibody can be paired with the biotinylated TRFK4 anti-mouse IL-5 antibody (Cat. No. 554397) as the detecting antibody, with recombinant mouse IL-5 (Cat. No. 554581) as the standard. For a human IL-5 ELISA, purified TRFK5 antibody can be paired with the biotinylated JES1-5A10 anti-human IL-5 antibody (Cat. No. 554491) as the detecting antibody, with recombinant human IL-5 (Cat. No. 554606) as the standard. The purified TRFK5 antibody should be titrated 1.0 - 4.0 µg/ml to determine optimal concentration for ELISA capture. To obtain linear standard curves, doubling dilutions of IL-5 protein ranging ~2000 to 15 pg/ml are recommended for inclusion in each ELISA plate. For specific methodology, please visit the protocols section on our website at http://www.bdbiosciences.com/support/resources/elisa_elispot/.
Note: For testing IL-5 in serum or plasma, the Mouse IL-5 OptEIA™ Set (Cat. No. 555236) and the Human IL-5 OptEIA™ Set (Cat. No. 555202) are recommended.
Immunofluorescent Staining and Flow Cytometric Analysis: The TRFK5 antibody is useful for immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis to identify and enumerate mouse IL-5 producing cells within mixed cell populations. PE- or APC-conjugated TRFK5 antibodies (Cat. No. 554395, Cat. No. 554396) are especially suitable for these experiments.
Neutralization: The BD Pharmingen™ NA/LE TRFK5 antibody (Cat. No. 554391) is useful for neutralization of mouse and human IL-5 bioactivity.
WB: The TRFK5 antibody has been found useful for Western blotting
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- Sodium azide is a reversible inhibitor of oxidative metabolism; therefore, antibody preparations containing this preservative agent must not be used in cell cultures nor injected into animals. Sodium azide may be removed by washing stained cells or plate-bound antibody or dialyzing soluble antibody in sodium azide-free buffer. Since endotoxin may also affect the results of functional studies, we recommend the NA/LE (No Azide/Low Endotoxin) antibody format, if available, for in vitro and in vivo use.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
Companion Products
The TRFK5 antibody reacts with mouse interleukin-5 (IL-5) and cross-reacts with human IL-5. The TRFK5 antibody has been reported to cross react with IL-5 from rhesus monkey. This is a neutralizing antibody.
