Purity95%
SourcecDNA obtained from human leukocyte mRNA expressed in E. coli.
Specific ActivityDetermined by assaying inhibition of virus-induced cytopathic effect. In this antiviral assay for interferon, about 1 unit/ml of interferon is the quantity necessary to produce a cytopathic effect of 50%. The units are determined with respect to the international reference standard for human interferon alpha A (Hu-IFN-alphaA) provided by the National Institutes of Health. Unit of activity measured on bovine MDBK cells challenged with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV).
