Also known as: IL10 PLA
Use
The Interleukin 10, Plasma test is primarily used for research and to support attempts to understand the pathogenesis of immune, infectious, allergic, or inflammatory disorders. It provides insight into cytokine levels that may change in response to such conditions, contributing valuable information for both clinical and research purposes.
Special Instructions
Cytokine levels may demonstrate diurnal variation. For longitudinal comparison, it is recommended that cytokine levels be determined at the same time of day. Separate specimens must be submitted when multiple tests are ordered.
