Interpolated concentrations of native IL-18 in human HeLa, HL-60, and A431 cell extract samples based on a 800 μg/ml extract load. The concentrations of IL-18 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the IL-18 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-18 concentration was determined to be 1,099 pg/ml in HeLa cell extract, 456 pg/ml in HL-60 cell extract and 567 pg/ml in A431 cell extract.

Serum from nine individual healthy human female donors was measured in duplicate. Interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean IL-18 concentration was determined to be 423 pg/mL with a range of undetectable – 2,852 pg/mL.

Product details

Human IL-18 ELISA Kit, Chemiluminescent (ab325627) is a rapid single-wash sandwich 55 min ELISA to measure Human IL-18 in Serum, Citrate Plasma, EDTA Plasma, Heparin Plasma, Cell Culture Supernatant, Urine, Cell Extract with a sensitivity of 2.4 pg/mL.

How the assay works

Human IL-18 ELISA Kit, Chemiluminescent (ab325627) SimpleStep Ignite™ ELISA 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 during a 30 min only incubation, significantly reducing assay time. By utilizing a chemiluminscent detection method this improves the sensitivity and dynamic range when compared to traditional colormetric ELISAs.

Assay Specificity

Our SimpleStep Ignite™ ELISA kits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.
Please refer to our protocol booklet for more details.

Target data

Pro-inflammatory cytokine primarily involved in epithelial barrier repair, polarized T-helper 1 (Th1) cell and natural killer (NK) cell immune responses (PubMed : 10653850). Upon binding to IL18R1 and IL18RAP, forms a signaling ternary complex which activates NF-kappa-B, triggering synthesis of inflammatory mediators (PubMed : 14528293, PubMed : 25500532, PubMed : 37993714). Synergizes with IL12/interleukin-12 to induce IFNG synthesis from T-helper 1 (Th1) cells and natural killer (NK) cells (PubMed : 10653850). Involved in transduction of inflammation downstream of pyroptosis : its mature form is specifically released in the extracellular milieu by passing through the gasdermin-D (GSDMD) pore (PubMed : 33883744).
