Scientific Data Images for Human IFN‑ beta Antibody

IFN-beta Inhibition of EMCV-induced Cytopathy and Neutralization by Human IFN-beta Antibody.

Recombinant Human IFN-beta (Catalog # 8499-IF) reduces the Encephalomyocarditis Virus (EMCV)-induced cytopathy in the HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line in a dose-dependent manner (orange line), as measured by crystal violet staining. Inhibition of EMCV activity elicited by Recombinant Human IFN-beta (50 pg/mL) is neutralized (green line) by increasing concentrations of Recombinant Human IFN-beta Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB814R). The ND₅₀ is typically 1.50-18.0 µg/mL.

Applications for Human IFN‑ beta Antibody

Application

Recommended Usage

Neutralization

Measured by its ability to neutralize IFN-beta inhibition of EMCV-induced cytopathy in the HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line. Meager, A. (1987) in Lymphokines and Interferons, a Practical Approach. Clemens, M.J. et al. (eds): IRL Press. 129. The Neutralization Dose (ND₅₀) is typically 1.50-18.0 μg/mL in the presence of 50 pg/mL Recombinant Human IFN-beta.

Formulation, Preparation, and Storage

Purification

Protein A or G purified from cell culture supernatant

Reconstitution

Reconstitute at 0.5 mg/mL in sterile PBS. For liquid material, refer to CoA for concentration.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS with Trehalose. *Small pack size (SP) is supplied either lyophilized or as a 0.2 µm filtered solution in PBS.

Shipping

Lyophilized product is shipped at ambient temperature. Liquid small pack size (-SP) is shipped with polar packs. Upon receipt, store immediately at the temperature recommended below.

Stability & Storage

Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
6 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.

Calculators

The reconstitution calculator allows you to quickly calculate the volume of a reagent to reconstitute your vial. Simply enter the mass of reagent and the target concentration and the calculator will determine the rest.

Background: IFN-beta

Interferon beta (IFN-beta ) is synthesized and secreted by fibroblasts and many other cell types in response to pathogens. IFN-beta binding to type I interferon receptors induces the upregulation of IRF-7 and activation of Rnase L. IRF-7 can exert a positive feedback on IFN-beta production. RNase L cleaves both viral and cellular single stranded mRNA, thereby limiting viral replication and dissemination.
