Rat semi-quantitative inflammation antibody arrays are multiplex protein profiling tools designed to investigate multiple inflammation-related cytokines, chemokines and other inflammatory mediators simultaneously in rat biological samples. These antibody microarrays consist of capture antibodies immobilised at defined positions on functionalised glass slides. Based on sandwich immunoassay principles, target proteins are captured by specific antibodies and detected using corresponding detection antibodies, followed by fluorescence-based signal measurement.

The resulting fluorescence intensities provide relative protein abundance data, enabling researchers to compare inflammatory mediator profiles between experimental conditions. Rat cytokine antibody arrays have been used in peer-reviewed studies to investigate local inflammatory responses and identify changes in cytokine levels in animal models.

Key Features

• Multiplex detection: Simultaneous profiling of multiple inflammation-related cytokines and chemokines.

• Glass slide format: Spatially organised antibody spots enable parallel protein detection.

• Fluorescence readout: Fluorescence intensities reflect the relative abundance of target proteins.

• Semi-quantitative analysis: Enables comparative protein profiling rather than absolute protein quantification.

Usual Applications

• Investigation of inflammatory signalling pathways.

• Comparison of cytokine profiles in rat disease models.

• Study of immune responses and tissue inflammation.

• Identification of differentially expressed inflammatory mediators.

• Preliminary screening of potential inflammation-related biomarkers.
