    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Large volumes of mouse interferon were produced using ascitic fluid from mice with sarcoma 180/TG tumors after Germiston virus inoculation. This method efficiently yields interferon for research applications.

    Area of Science:

    • Virology
    • Immunology
    • Biochemistry

    Background:

    • Interferon (IFN) is a crucial cytokine in the innate immune response.
    • Production of sufficient quantities of IFN is essential for research and therapeutic applications.
    • Ascitic fluid from tumor-bearing mice offers a potential source for biological material.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a method for obtaining large volumes of mouse interferon.
    • To investigate the efficacy of using ascitic fluid from tumor-bearing mice for interferon production.

    Main Methods:

    • Mice bearing sarcoma 180/TG tumors were utilized.
    • Ascitic fluid was collected from these mice.
    • Germiston virus was used to inoculate the mice to stimulate interferon production.

    Main Results:

    • Relatively large volumes of mouse interferon were successfully obtained.
    • The method demonstrated feasibility for large-scale interferon harvesting.

    Conclusions:

    • Ascitic fluid from sarcoma 180/TG bearing mice, when inoculated with Germiston virus, is an effective source for producing substantial quantities of mouse interferon.
    • This approach provides a viable method for generating mouse interferon for experimental purposes.
