Description
OverviewRecombinant, human αA-interferon expressed in E. coli. Antiviral, anti-neoplastic agent. αA-Interferon exhibits therapeutic potential with chronic viral hepatitis, polycythemia vera, and various malignancies. It enhances natural killer cell activity, suppresses bone marrow function, and induces apoptotic cell death in non-melanoma skin cancer. NOTE: 1MU = 1,000,000 units.
