Specificity
MCA2334 recognises bovine TNF alpha, a 17.5kDa cytokine, expressed by many different stimulated cell types including monocytes, macrophages, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and both T and B-lymphocytes.

The production of TNF alpha is induced by a variety of factors, dependant upon cell type and includes bacterial toxins, IL-1, PDGF, IFN-beta, NGF, Oncostatin M and viral infections. The presence of TNF alpha is responsible for diverse immunomodulatory, anti-tumour and toxic effects and under certain conditions is also capable of self-stimulation and inhibition.
Flow Cytometry
Use 10ul of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100ul.
*Membrane permeabilisation is required for this application. Serotec recommends the use of LeucopermTM (Fix & PermTM) Product code: BUF09 for this purpose.
Method sheets are available on request.
ELISA
This reagent may be used as a capture antibody in sandwich ELISA assays for bovine TNF alpha in combination with MCA2335B as detection reagent.
