DESCRIPTION

Immune-Frame is used to assess the condition of a patient’s immune system. Scientists use the test to identify specific cellular markers that are responsible for switching a patient’s immune system on and off.

Immune-Frame provides a detailed and thorough analysis of the condition and status of a patient’s immune system. Scientists study a patient’s blood sample to detect cytokines produced by specific cells and to identify blood-borne markers. The test uses specific advanced tissue analysis techniques to detect the type or types of cells that are responsible for switching a patient’s immune system on and off.

Immune-Frame uses two different tests, or assays, to establish the current condition of the immune system. The ELISA assay is used to detect cytokines produced by specific cells. Flow cytometry is used to measure specific markers on blood cells in the peripheral vascular system.

The results provide a personalised analysis of the strength of the immune system and can highlight potential risks a patient face. Clinicians can use the information and guidance for patients.

SPECIMEN REQUIREMENT

15 ml of whole blood
