Answergamma interferon
IFN-γ, or type II interferon, is a cytokine that is critical for innate and adaptive immunity against viral, some bacterial and protozoan infections. IFN-γ is an important activator of macrophages and inducer of major histocompatibility complex class II molecule expression.

What is the gold standard for TB screening?
The two standards for TB testing include a blood draw or skin test. Currently, the gold standard for blood drawn TB testing is a test called QuantiFERON Gold Plus. This test is an improved upon version of the QuantiFERON Gold. Another standard for TB testing used today is the PPD skin test.
What is TB Gold?
QuantiFERON-TB Gold (QFT) is a simple blood test that aids in the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacteria which causes tuberculosis (TB). QFT is an interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) release assay, commonly known as an IGRA, and is a modern alternative to the tuberculin skin test (TST, PPD or Mantoux).
What is TB Gold Plus?
The QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) test is an interferon (IFN)-gamma release assay (IGRA) that assesses the cell-mediated immune response to 2 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex antigens, ESAT-6 and CFP-10, by measuring IFN-gamma levels in plasma.

When is QuantiFERON gold test positive?
