Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a protein produced by various cells. It helps regulate immune responses, which makes the IL-6 test potentially useful as a marker of immune system activation. IL-6 can be elevated with inflammation, infection, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and some cancers. The test measures the amount of IL-6 in the blood. Interleukin-6 is one of a large group of molecules called cytokines. Cytokines have multiple roles to play within the body and act especially within the immune system to help direct the body's immune response. They are a part of the "inflammatory cascade" that involves the coordinated, sequential activation of immune response pathways. IL-6 acts on a variety of cells and tissues. It promotes differentiation of B-cells (white blood cells that produce antibodies), promotes cell growth in some cells, and inhibits growth in others. It stimulates the production of acute phase proteins. IL-6 also plays a role in body temperature regulation, bone maintenance, and brain function. It is primarily pro-inflammatory but can also have anti-inflammatory effects. Test cassette Extraction buffer

Technical Strength 1. Semi-Liquid Phase Reaction Half of the immune reaction is done in the liquid phase, which effectively improves the sensitivity and accuracy of the product. In the sample, the antigen binds more fully to the fluorescently labeled antibody. The release of fluorescent microspheres on the NC membrane is more uniform. Test results of whole blood samples have better repeatability. 2. Red Nanofluorescent Technology a. Comparing with ordinary fluorescein 1) FITC (fluorescein isothiocyanate) and other fluorescent substances are light sensitive and thus easily quenched. Their fluorescence...
