Interleukin 2 (IL-2) is a pleiotropic cytokine produced primarily by mitogen- or antigen-activated T lymphocytes. IL-2 plays a key role in promoting the clonal expansion of antigen-specific T cells. In addition, IL-2 has also been shown to mediate multiple immune responses on a variety of cell types.IL-2 stimulates the proliferation of thymocytes; stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of activated B cells; promotes the growth, differentiation and cytocidal activity of monocytes; induces the growth of and cytokine production and cytolytic activity by natural killer cells; enhances the production of lymphocyte-activated killer (LAK) cells; and induces the proliferation and differentiation of oligodendrocytes .

Sheep Interleukin 2 (IL-2) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate IL2 in samples. An antibody specific for IL2 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyIL2 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for IL2 is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of IL2 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
