Figure 1From: A whole blood monokine-based reporter assay provides a sensitive and robust measurement of the antigen-specific T cell responseAntigen activated T cells and the monokine assay. In contrast to ELISpot assays which capture and measure IFNγ produced by activated T cells, the monokine assay measures the downstream effects of IFNγ on mononuclear cells benefiting from the biological amplification of the signalling.Back to article page
