Sample

ELISA

This antibody functions as an ELISA capture antibody when paired with Goat Anti-Human IL‑2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF-202-NA).

This product is intended for assay development on various assay platforms requiring antibody pairs. We recommend the Human IL-2 DuoSet ELISA Kit (Catalog # DY202) for convenient development of a sandwich ELISA or the Human IL-2 Quantikine ELISA Kit (Catalog # D2050) for a complete optimized ELISA.

Please Note: Optimal dilutions should be determined by each laboratory for each application. General Protocols are available in the Technical Information section on our website.
