| IL-1β

Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) also known as leukocytic pyrogen, leukocytic endogenous mediator, mononuclear cell factor, lymphocyte activating factor and other names, is a cytokine protein that in humans is encoded by the IL1B gene.There are two genes for interleukin-1 (IL-1): IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta (this gene). IL-1β precursor is cleaved by cytosolic caspase 1 (interleukin 1 beta convertase) to form mature IL-1β.
 

| Typical data

As the OD values of the standard curve may vary according to the conditions of the actual assay performance (e.g. operator, pipetting technique, wash technique or temperature effects), the operator should establish a standard curve for each test. Typical standard curve and data are provided below for reference only.

 

Concentration (pg/mL)	80	40	20	10	5	2.5	1.25	0
OD	2.51	1.96	1.24	0.72	0.46	0.3	0.22	0.09
Corrected OD	2.42	1.87	1.15	0.63	0.37	0.21	0.13	-

 

| Repeatability

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay)：CV% < 10%; Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays)：CV% < 10%
 

| Recovery

The recovery of Human IL-1β spiked at three different levels in samples throughout the range of the assay was evaluated in various matrices.

 

Sample Type	Range(%)	Average Recovery(%)
Serum(n=8)	83-100	94
Plasma(n=8)	92-101	97
Cell Culture Supernates(n=8)	97-105	102

 

| Linearity

Samples were spiked with high concentrations of Human IL-1β and diluted with Universal Diluent to produce samples with values within the range of the assay.

 

		Serum(n=4)	Plasma(n=4)	Cell Culture Supernates(n=4)
1 : 2	Range (%)	84-95	88-96	92-111
	Average (%)	91	94	96
1 : 4	Range (%)	85-102	87-108	101-115
	Average (%)	94	98	106
