This antibody in combination with α8Y36-2 can be used to detect human interferon alpha 8 in a sandwich ELISA (PMID: 18593331). This antibody can also detect human inteferon alpha 8 in a western blot assay and a radioimmunoassay. It is reported that the binding of this antibody has a neutralizing effect on the anti-viral activity of interferon alpha 8. This antibody can also be used in the purification of human interferon alpha 8 by affinity chromatography.
This chimeric human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
