Product specifications

Intended use

This ELISA Flex kit is intended for the quantification of human IL-29 (IFN-λ1) in solution. For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Serum/Plasma samples

Analysis of serum/plasma with this kit requires the use of ELISA diluent. The ELISA diluent blocks heterophilic antibodies from cross-linking the assay antibodies, thereby preventing false-positive read-outs. Heterophilic antibodies are commonly found in human serum/plasma. The ELISA diluent has been validated using serum/plasma samples from healthy human blood donors. It should be used for dilution of standard, samples, and detection antibody.

Analyte information

IL-29 (IFN-λ1)

Analyte description	Interleukin 29 (IL-29, IFN-λ1) is at type III interferon. Presently, three type III interferons are described: IFN-λ1, IFN-λ2, and IFN-λ3. Similar to type I interferons, IL-29 is mainly produced by monocytes and dendritic cells in response to viral infections. Among other anti-viral effects, IL-29 induces upregulation of MHC class I on the surface of the virus-infected cell.
Alternative names	Interleukin 29, IL-29, IL29, IFN-λ1, Interferon-λ1, IFN-lamba1, IFNL1
Cell type	T cell, Th1, Th17, NK cell
Gene ID	282618
