IFN alpha (chicken) Do-It-Yourself ELISA

The Chicken IFN alpha Do-It-Yourself ELISA contains capture antibody, standard, and detection antibody for development of a Chicken IFN alpha ELISA. The antibodies have been determined to function in an ELISA with the standard provided. Optimal buffers, concentrations, incubation times, incubation temperatures, and methods for the ELISA have not been determined. A working knowledge of ELISA is strongly recommended. The quantities of components provided are not matched. Components may also be purchased separately. Protein function: Produced by lymphocytes activated by specific antigens or mitogens. IFN-gamma, in addition to having antiviral activity, has important immunoregulatory functions.
