Mycobacterium bovis complex / Tuberculosis

ID Screen® Ruminant IFN-g

ELISA

Sandwich ELISA for the detection of ovine, bovine and caprine interferon gamma (IFN-g) in activated plasma or culture supernatant

  • Standardized results thanks to a freeze-dried positive reference control used to calculate S/P ratios for each sample
  • Flexible: the same kit may be used with both native antigens (standard protocol) and recombinant / peptide antigens (alternative protocol)
  • Practical: the standard protocol uses only 10μl per sample, meaning that less sample volume is required for cell activation

Method :

Sandwich ELISA

Species :

Bovine, ovine and caprine

Specimens :

Activated plasma or culture supernatant

Coated antigen :

Anti-ruminant IFN-g monoclonal antibody

Conjugate :

Anti-ruminant IFN-g HRP Mab conjugate
