TNF-α Neutralization Assay

1. Plate 2 x 104 murine L929B cells into individual wells of 96-well (flat bottomed) microtiter plate.

2. Incubate overnight at 37°C in humidified 5% CO2 incubator.

3. The next day, prepare serial dilutions of anti-TNF (human) in medium containing 2 μg/mL of actinomycin D, for a final volume of 50 μL

4. Add 50 μL of TNF (10 ng/mL final concentration) to each antibody dilution and incubate for 1 hour at 37°C.

5. Add 100 μL of the antibody/antigen mixture to the pre-seeded L929B cells.

6. Incubate 24 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2.

7. Score wells for cytotoxicity.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
