Interferon as an immunoadjuvant to enhance antibodies following influenza B infection and vaccination in ferrets

Ampersand Biosciences was cited in the article titled, “Interferon as an immunoadjuvant to enhance antibodies following influenza B infection and vaccination in ferrets” for the use of a multiplex luminex assay kit containing ferret specific antibodies and proteins in a microsphere-based assay that consisted of antigen-specific antibodies covalently coupled to magnetic Luminex beads and biotinylated detection antibodies in a capture-sandwich format. This multiplex luminex assay was used to test levels of Type-I/II IFN (IFNB and IFNG), TH1/TH2 (IP-10 and IL-2), pro-inflammatory (MCP-1, MIP-1B, TNFA, IL-6, IL-8, and IL-23) and T-effector (IL-4, IL-17, IL-12p40, and IL-12p70) in ferret sera.

Species: Ferret
Focus: Influenza B

Vaccine Platform Comparison: Protective Efficacy against Lethal Marburg Virus Challenge in the Hamster Model

Ampersand Biosciences was cited in the article titled, “Vaccine Platform Comparison: Protective Efficacy against Lethal Marburg Virus Challenge in the Hamster Model” for the use of the 9-plex hamster cytokine panel and its use in serum cytokine analysis on hamster serum samples. This cytokine panel was used to assess the values for IL-10, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IFN?, MCP-1, MIP-1?, TNF?, and VEGF.

Species: Hamster
Focus: Marburg Virus

Epigenetic Priming by Hypomethylation Enhances the Immunogenic Potential of Tolinapant in T-cell Lymphoma

Ampersand Biosciences was cited in the article titled, “Epigenetic Priming by Hypomethylation Enhances the Immunogenic Potential of Tolinapant in T-cell Lymphoma” for the use of Rodent Map 4.0 on the Luminex platform to measure mouse plasma and cell supernatant cytokines. Analysis was performed on 42 analytes including: Analysis of 42 analytes; CCL6, CRP, Eotaxin, GCP-2, GMCSF, IFN?, IFN?, IL1?, IL1 beta, IL2, IL4, IL5, IL6, IL9, IL10, IL12p40, IL12p70, IL17A, IL18, IL23, IL27, IL28, Insulin, IP-10, KC/GRO, MCP-1, MCSF1, MDC, MIP-1?, MIP-1?, MIP-1?, MMP-9, NGAL, RAGE, PAI-1, SCF, TIMP-1, TNF?, TPO, TSLP, VCAM-1, VEGF-A.
