Product overview
Monkey IL-8 ELISA Kit (ab242232) is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of IL-8 protein in cell culture supernatant, edta plasma, hep plasma, and serum. It uses our proprietary SimpleStep ELISA® technology. Quantitate Monkey IL-8 with 2.3 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
- Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
- High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
- Fully validated in biological samples
- 96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells stripsA 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

Function
IL-8 is a chemotactic factor that attracts neutrophils, basophils, and T-cells, but not monocytes. It is also involved in neutrophil activation. It is released from several cell types in response to an inflammatory stimulus. IL-8(6-77) has a 5-10-fold higher activity on neutrophil activation, IL-8(5-77) has increased activity on neutrophil activation and IL-8(7-77) has a higher affinity to receptors CXCR1 and CXCR2 as compared to IL-8(1-77), respectively. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the intercrine alpha (chemokine CxC) family. -
Post-translational
modificationsSeveral N-terminal processed forms are produced by proteolytic cleavage after secretion from at least peripheral blood monocytes, leukcocytes and endothelial cells. In general, IL-8(1-77) is referred to as interleukin-8. IL-8(6-77) is the most promiment form. -

SimpleStep ELISA technology allows the formation of the antibody-antigen complex in one single step, reducing assay time to 90 minutes. Add samples or standards and antibody mix to wells all at once, incubate, wash, and add your final substrate. See protocol for a detailed step-by-step guide.

The IL-8 standard curve was prepared as described in Section 10. Raw data values are shown in the table. Background-subtracted data values (mean +/- SD) are graphed.
-
The concentrations of IL-8 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-8 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: serum 10%, plasma (heparin) 50%, and plasma (EDTA) 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-8 concentration was determined to be 2,072 pg/mL in neat serum, 644.2 pg/mL in neat plasma (heparin), and 248.7 pg/mL in neat plasma (EDTA).

Rhesus macaque PBMCs were cultured in the presence (stimulated) or absence (unstimulated) of 50 ng/mL PMA and 1 µg/mL ionomycin for 24 hours. The concentrations of IL-8 were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the IL-8 standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows: stimulated PBMC supernatant 3%, and unstimulated PBMC supernatant 50%. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-8 concentration was determined to be 9,926 pg/mL in neat stimulated PBMC cell culture supernatant and 36.36 pg/mL in neat unstimulated PBMC cell culture supernatant. IL-6 was undetectable in naive cell culture media (not shown).
