AlphaLISA technology allows the detection of molecules of interest in buffer, cell culture media, serum and plasma in a highly sensitive, quantitative, reproducible and user-friendly mode. In an AlphaLISA assay, a Biotinylated Anti-Analyte Antibody binds to the Streptavidin-coated Alpha Donor beads, while another Anti-Analyte Antibody is conjugated to AlphaLISA Acceptor beads. In the presence of the analyte, the beads come into close proximity. The excitation of the Donor beads provokes the release of singlet oxygen molecules that triggers a cascade of energy transfer in the Acceptor beads, resulting in a sharp peak of light emission at 615 nm.

Interferon Gamma Induced Protein 10 (IP-10), also known as CXCL10, is a cytokine secreted in response to Interferon-γ. Cell types that secrete IP-10 include monocytes, endothelial cells and fibroblasts. IP-10 has several functions, including chemoattraction for monocytes/macrophages, T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells, promotion of T cell adhesion to endothelial cells, and antitumor activity. IP-10 has been linked to multiple diseases including HIV, HPV and TB. The present kit permits the detection of mouse IP-10 in serum and cell culture lysates/samples.
