Product Summary for Mouse IFN-beta Quantikine ELISA Kit
The Quantikine® Mouse IFN-beta Immunoassay is a 4.5 hour solid phase ELISA designed to measure mouse IFN-beta in cell culture supernates, serum, and plasma. It contains
HEK293-expressed recombinant mouse IFN-beta and antibodies raised against the recombinant factor. This immunoassay has been shown to quantitate the recombinant factor accurately. Results obtained using natural mouse IFN-beta showed dose-response curves that were parallel to the standard curves obtained using the recombinant kit standards. These results indicate that this kit can be used to determine relative mass values for natural mouse IFN-beta.

Specificity
Natural and recombinant mouse IFN-beta.
Cross-reactivity
< 0.5% cross-reactivity observed with available related molecules. < 50% cross-species reactivity observed with species tested.
Interference

Sample Values
Serum/Plasma - Ten serum samples, 5 EDTA plasma, and 5 heparin plasma samples were
evaluated for the presence of mouse IFN-beta in this assay. No detectable levels were observed.
ND=Non-detectable
Cell Culture Supernates - - NIH-3T3 mouse embyronic fibroblast cells were cultured in DMEM
supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and grown to approximately 90% confluency.
Cells were unstimulated or stimulated with 10 μg/mL Poly I:C delivered via Lipofectamine for
24 hours. Aliquots of the cell culture supernates were removed and assayed for levels of mouse
IFN-beta.

Precision
Intra-Assay Precision (Precision within an assay) Three samples of known concentration were tested twenty times on one plate to assess intra-assay precision.
Inter-Assay Precision (Precision between assays) Three samples of known concentration were tested in twenty separate assays to assess inter-assay precision. Assays were performed by at least three technicians using two lots of components.

Recovery for Mouse IFN-beta Quantikine ELISA Kit
The recovery of mouse IFN-beta spiked into various matrices was evaluated.
| Sample Type | Average % Recovery | Range % |
|---|---|---|
| Cell Culture Media (n=4) | 96 | 88-106 |
| EDTA Plasma (n=4) | 99 | 89-106 |
| Heparin Plasma (n=4) | 94 | 83-100 |
| Serum (n=4) | 94 | 89-97 |
Linearity
To assess the linearity of the assay, samples spiked with high concentrations of mouse IFN-beta were serially diluted with calibrator diluent to produce samples with values within the dynamic range of the assay.
