Introducing Gyrolab human cytokine kit reagents
11 May 2023In this application note, Gyros Protein Technologies has developed a range of kit reagents to enable reliable measurement of cytokine biomarkers in human serum samples, which are important in health and disease states such as infection, inflammation, trauma, sepsis, and cancer. The Gyrolab® Human Cytokine Kit Reagents contain ready-to-use reagents, including standard material and buffers for one CD run, and offer automated assays with minimal manual operations, and reproducible data suitable for use throughout development in regulated studies. The kit reagents have been optimized to be used in combination with Gyrolab® Bioaffy™ 4000 CD, but other Gyrolab CD types can be used to customize the technical performance.

BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :CytokinesCytokines are signaling proteins critical for cell communication in the immune system. They regulate inflammation, immune responses, and cell growth. Cytokine research is vital for understanding disease mechanisms and developing therapies.

Biomarkers can be used to diagnose presence of a disease and indicate disease severity. The discovery of new biomarkers is incredibly valuable in the field of diagnostics.
