Application Notes

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Interferon-alpha 2a in sterile 18MO-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The specific activity was determined by a quantitative gene report bioassay using human Type I interferon-sensitive cells. Compared with bacterial derived recombinant IFN-a 2a, assayed in the same conditions, plant derived IFN-alpha 2a showed 6.1 - 108 Units/mg in reference to a viral resistance assay using bovine kidney MDBK cells.
