Abstract

Interleukin-18 (IL-18), a member of IL-1 cytokine superfamily, is deemed as an important indicator of the kidney disease. Herein a sandwich chemiluminescence immunoassay integrated with magnetic beads was conducted to detect IL-18 in kidney disease. The detection limit and linear range were 0.0044 ng/mL and 0.01–2.7 ng/mL, respectively. Satisfactory recoveries were ranged from 91.70 to 101.18% with the relative standard deviation below 10%; interference bias of most biomarkers were within allowable deviation range (± 15%). In summary, the whole study was successfully applied to detect IL-18 levels in urine samples for patients with kidney disease. The results showed that chemiluminescence immunoassay for IL-18 detection could be used in the clinical application.
