A molecular assay for sensitive detection of pathogen-specific T-cells.

A molecular assay for sensitive detection of pathogen-specific T-cells.

Here we describe the development and validation of a highly sensitive assay of antigen-specific IFN-γ production using real time quantitative PCR (qPCR) for two reporters--monokine-induced by IFN-γ (MIG) and the IFN-γ inducible protein-10 (IP10). We developed and validated the assay and applied it t...
