The Lumit® Mouse IL-1β Immunoassay is a homogeneous, bioluminescent assay for detecting interleukin-1β (IL-1β) released from cells without the need for sample transfers or wash steps. This Lumit® IL-1β Immunoassay is based on NanoLuc® Binary Technology (NanoBiT®), a luminescent structural complementation system designed for biomolecular interaction studies. The system is composed of two subunits, Large BiT (LgBiT; 18kDa) and Small BiT (SmBiT; 11 amino acid peptide), that have been optimized for stability and minimal spontaneous association. In this assay, a sample is incubated with a pair of anti-human IL-1β monoclonal antibodies covalently labeled with SmBiT or LgBiT. When the labeled antibodies recognize and bind to released IL-1β, the complementary LgBiTs and SmBiTs are brought into proximity, reconstituting NanoBiT® enzyme and generating luminescence in the presence of the Lumit® substrate. Luminescence generated is directly proportional to the amount of analyte present in the sample.
