The logit-log linear transformation curve was used for the calculations.
- the concentrations of TNF in the samples was read from a standard curve of rhTNF that was linear in the 157 to 20,000 pg/ml range.
- Iodination of rhTNF was performed using a modified chloramine-T method of Frolik et al., J. Biol. Chem., 259:10995-11000 (1984). Briefly, 5 mg of rhTNF in 5 ml of 20MM Tris ph 7.5, was diluted with 15 ml of 0.5M KPO4 and 10 ml of carrier free 125 I(100mCi/ml;ICN).
