PBL InterferonSource will be exhibiting their range of interferon products at AACR, Booth 508

25 Mar 2008

Product news

Highlights include the following:

The iLite™ alpha kit is a simple and rapid cell-based bioassay for the detection and quantification of the biological activity of human IFN-alpha, IFN-beta, or IFN-omega.

  • Gene reporter assay format works with serum, plasma, or culture supernatants
  • Provided with IFN-alpha standard, but works with any Type I IFN standard
  • ISO 13485:2003 certified assay
  • Effective measurement range from 0.5 IU/ml to ~150 IU/ml

The VeriKine™ line of ELISA kits measure Type I and Type II IFNs in mouse or human samples giving you accurate results within hours.

The VeriKine™-DIY kits allow researchers to create their own interferon lambda ELISAs. Included are capture and detection antibodies, and appropriate buffers.

AntibodiesAntibodies are used in techniques such as confocal and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISPOT, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunopreciptation. Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.ELISAEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), also known as enzyme immunoassays (EIA), are used for the detection and quantification of proteins, peptides and antibodies in a sample. ELISA often comes in kit format, with pre-selected antibody pairs to detect specific proteins or biomarkers of diseases such as diabetes and obesity, or cardiovascular and neurological disorders. Detection is made possible with chemiluminescent, fluorescent or colorimetric substrates and detection instruments such as microplate / ELISA readers. Other kits available include: Enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assays for the quantification of protein-producing cells and chemiluminescent immunoassays (CLIA) kits.
