Used in veterinary research to measure levels of canine alpha interferon in biological samples such as serum, plasma, or cell culture supernatants. This assay helps in studying immune responses in dogs, particularly during viral infections like canine distemper or parvovirus. It is also applied in evaluating the efficacy of antiviral therapies and immunomodulatory drugs. The kit supports research in vaccine development by monitoring interferon production as a marker of innate immune activation. Widely used in academic laboratories, diagnostic facilities, and pharmaceutical research focused on canine health and disease mechanisms.
