AHP944Z recognizes chicken Interferon beta (chIFN-beta). Reports suggest that chIFN exhibits properties similar to mammalian IFN type I (IFNI).
Functional studies revealed the presence of two distantly related IFNI genes, designated as IFN alpha and IFN beta, found on chicken chromosome Z. The serological distinction between these two IFNs has been verified using neutralisation assays, and there is evidence that the antiviral activity of chIFN-beta is approximately ten-fold less compared to chIFN-alpha. This would suggest that chIFNbeta might have a different physiological role, though chIFN-beta is expressed strongly in virus-infected cells. AHP944Z does not cross react with IFN gamma.
This antiserum neutralizes chIFN-beta and can be used to discriminate IFN alpha and IFN beta bioactivities, seeSchwarz, H.et al.for details.

Where this antibody has not been tested for use in a particular technique this does not necessarily exclude its use in such procedures. Suggested working dilutions are given as a guide only. It is recommended that the user titrates the antibody for use in their own system using appropriate negative/positive controls.
Western Blotting
AHP944Z detects a band of approximately 20 kDa.
Storage
Store at -20oC only.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended.
This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
18 months from date of despatch.
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to chicken Interferon Beta were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG was prepared by affinity chromatography on protein G.
