This protocol provides instructions for drawing, processing, and storing blood according to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and uses the multi-analyte fluorescent detection (MAFD) method to measure 12 different cytokines: Interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), Interleukin-10 (IL-10), Interleukin-12 (IL-12), Interleukin-13 (IL-13), Interleukin-2 (IL-2), Interleukin-2 Receptor (IL-2R), Interleukin-4 (IL-4), Interleukin-5 (IL-5), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Interleukin-8 (IL-8), Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF alpha). The Infectious Diseases and Immunity Working Group notes that although the recommendation is for the multi-analyte fluorescent detection (MAFD) method of Cytokine Panel 12 offered through ARUP Laboratories, there are additional cytokines or other immunoactive molecules that may be selected according to the individual condition(s) being studied.
