I need to quantify the amount of some cytokines in serum and culture supernatant. Different kits have different sensitivity and range of detection, what brand or brands would you recommend?
It will entirely depend on the cytokine that you want to measure. For the cytokines that I am interested in, I usually buy my kits from R&D Systems.
Novatein Biosciences is my choice as they give discount if you say you have funding crunch!
I usually buy my ELISA kits from BD or R&D Systems.
I always use the kits from
R&D Systems
IBL International GmbH - Hamburg, Germany
I recommend Creative Diagnostics company:
