Generation of Type I interferons (IFNs) occurs downstream of a multitude of immunologic stimuli. The production of these cytokines can be either a positive prognostic, as in defensive immunity against a pathogenic insult, or a negative prognostic, as in promotion of autoimmunity.

In humans, the designation "IFN-Alpha" is used to represent a family of proteins comprised of at least 12 highly homologous protein subtypes that exhibit diverse biologic activities. IFN-Alpha can be used as a therapeutic agent in disease treatment regimens, as a downstream readout of the effectiveness f several drug therapies, and as a marker of pathology in human clinical and preclinical studies.

PBL's Human IFN-Alpha ELISA kits are in the forefront of providing accurate quantitation of IFN-Alpha. Below is a quick view of these kits' IFN-Alpha subtype specificities. For more detailed information such as LLOQs and LLODs of the All-Subtype VeriKine-HS kits, please visit individual product pages.
