Company:

PeproTech

Product Name:

Murine MIP-2 (CXCL2) Mini ABTS ELISA Development Kit

Catalog Number:

900-M152

Primary murine microglia were treated with lysophospatidic acid (LPA) 1µM in the presence or absence of a PKD family inhibitor (CRT; 1µM). Differences in levels of various pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines were analyzed using ELISA kits.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

ELISA

Starting Material

Primary murine microglia

Tips

It is better to apply the coating antibody overnight and not just 2h as it is suggested in the kit's manual.

Results Summary

PKD inhibition (CRT 1µM; red bars) decreased the LPA induced secretion of CXCL2 in primary murine microglia cells.

Summary

The Good

Easy to use, reproducible results, very good price

The Bad

Since it's not a pre-coated ELISA, the experimental procedure takes a bit longer.

The Bottom Line

A very good kit for the detection of CXCL2.
