Term Description

The negative control accounts for any cells that would be producing interferon at some level without any additional stimulation. This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the submitter's Bovigam Mycobacterium bovis Gamma Interferon Test Kit for Cattle, a blood-based in vitro laboratory test for bovine tuberculosis.

Part Description

LP220301-8   Gamma interferon.negative control
Interferon gamma is a cytokine produced by T helper cells as part of the immune response to various stimuli. The level of gamma interferon produced provides a measure of sensitization of the cell mediated immune system to the specific stimulus. This negative (nil) control includes the carrier diluent used in the other stimulants with no specific antigen, so the expected result is minimal production of gamma interferon.
