High-throughput multiplex assay for Th1/Th2 cytokine profiling in mouse samples
The Invitrogen™ ProcartaPlex™ Mouse Essential Th1/Th2 Cytokine Panel, 6plex is designed to quantitatively measure six key cytokines involved in Th1 and Th2 immune responses in a single well using Luminex™ xMAP technology. This assay enables researchers to obtain comprehensive cytokine secretion profiles while conserving precious samples and reducing assay time.
By simultaneously detecting IFN gamma, IL-12p70, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and TNF alpha, the panel provides essential insights into immune function, inflammation, and immunopathology. It complements the Mouse Essential Th1/Th2 Cytokine Panel 2, 8plex for expanded cytokine profiling and is compatible with selected ProcartaPlex™ modular panels and simplex assays.
Key Features & Benefits
- Multiplexed Detection – Measure six Th1/Th2 cytokines in a single well.
- Sample Efficiency – Requires only 25 μL of serum or plasma, or 50 μL of cell culture supernatant.
- High Sensitivity & Specificity – Extensively validated for analyte combinability, minimal cross-reactivity, and interference.
- Fast Turnaround – Complete analysis in ~4 hours with Luminex instrumentation.
- Broad Compatibility – Works with multiple mouse sample types and standard Luminex systems (Luminex 200, FLEXMAP 3D, MAGPIX).
- Comprehensive Immune Profiling – Ideal for studying cytokine networks and immune response modulation.
Applications
- Immunology Research – Study Th1 and Th2 cytokine profiles in disease models.
- Inflammation Studies – Assess cytokine shifts in inflammatory and autoimmune conditions.
- Vaccine & Immunotherapy Research – Evaluate immune modulation and efficacy.
- Infectious Disease Models – Analyze host-pathogen immune interactions.
