Abstract

See full text

The invention concerns an improved pyrogenicity test for use in automated immunoassay systems, in which a sample is incubated with a monocyte-containing reagent in a pyrogen-free assay system preferably comprising a surface coated with pyrogen-free anti-cytokine antibodies. The invention also concerns pyrogen-free assay systems coated with pyrogen-free antibodies for use in these tests. The invention also relates to a test to measure the basal production of endogenous mediators of the inflammatory response by leukocytes and a method of measuring the capacity of a leukocyte to respond to a stimuli.
