• Background: The monoclonal antibody to human IFN-? (clone MD-2) was first described in 1985. It has shown to binds with high affinity to both natural and recombinant human IFN-? but does not neutralize the antiviral bioactivity of IFN-? in vitro. In a Western Blot the antibody reacts with the 20 kDa and 25 kDa polypeptides present in natural human IFN-? (van der Meide P.H. et al. 1985). The MD-2 antibody has been descriped as useful in a sandwich ELISA (van Dissel J.T. et al. 2011, Wassenaar A. et al. 1995 and Wierenga E.A. et al. 1990). Further, the antibody has proven to cross react with rhesus macaque, cynomolgus monkey and marmoset IFN-? and can be used for immunohistochemical staining of frozen tissues (Kap Y. et al. 2009).
