As previously reported (5 (link)), Simoa digital ELISA specific for IFN-α was developed using a Quanterix Homebrew Assay, and two autoantibodies specific for IFN-α were isolated and cloned from two APS1/APECED patients (59 (link)). The 8H1 antibody clone was used as a capture antibody after coating paramagnetic beads (0.3 mg/ml), and the 12H5 was biotinylated (biotin/Ab ratio = 30:1) and used as the detector. Recombinant IFN-α17/αI (PBL Assay Science) was used as a standard curve after cross-reactivity testing. The limit of detection was calculated by the mean value of all blank runs ± 3 SDs and was 0.23 fg/ml.
