| Description: | The TNFα assay quantifies secreted TNFα from RAW264.7 immortalized murine macrophages as an indicator of inflammation. The cells were concurrently treated with LPS (as an inducer of inflammation) and a titration of test molecules or control compounds for 4 hrs. After the incubation period, the media was harvested and assayed via an ELISA assay. ODs of experimental samples are fit to those of a standard curve to extrapolate the TNFα concentration. IC50 values were calculated by fitting a curve to experimental values with the controls as the top and bottom limits of the curve. |
