Interleukin-10 is a small protein known as a cytokine that functions as an important regulator of the immune system. Although IL-10 is known to have many different roles in the immune system, its two major activities include inhibition of cytokine production by macrophages and inhibition of the accessory functions of macrophages during T cell activation. The effects of these actions cause IL-10 to play mainly an anti-inflammatory role in the immune system. IL-10 was originally known as the cytokine synthesis inhibiting factor (CSIF), and the discovery of this protein was based on its biological activity. IL-10 is mainly produced by the Th2 subset of CD4+ helper cells. However, it is also produced by some activated B cells, some Th1 cells , activated macrophages, and some nonhematopoietic sources .

Sheep Interleukin 10 (IL-10) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate IL10 in samples. An antibody specific for IL10 has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and anyIL10 present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for IL10 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 IL10 bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
