The Biotime IL-6 Rapid Quantitative Test is a fluorescence immunoassay designed for the Biotime FIA Analyzer, delivering results in 15 minutes from just 50μL of serum. IL-6 is produced by macrophages, monocytes, fibroblasts, lymphocytes, and T cells during infection or tissue injury, triggering the acute-phase immune response. Elevated IL-6 levels are associated with systemic inflammation, infection, and various cytokine-mediated diseases.

The rapid detection of IL-6 supports clinical decision-making in intensive care, emergency, and laboratory settings, providing clinicians with timely information for early intervention.
