Extracting therapeutic antibodies from biological systems requires stringent purification processes. To reduce costs and accelerate development, novel strategies are essential ...

Antibodies are both blockbuster biopharmaceuticals and some of the most versatile reagents in the laboratory toolkit. But many antibody lines are not consistent or do not work as described.

Antibodies are incredibly useful. Lots of recently developed drugs rely on antibodies that bind to and block the activity of specific proteins. They’re also great research tools, allowing us to ...

Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are specialized proteins produced by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign invaders, such as viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens. They are ...

Following a blood infection, the first class of antibodies produced by the immune system are IgM antibodies. They form the "vanguard" of the immune response, before other cells are activated to fight ...

The oPool+ display platform combines technologies to make and test large numbers of antibodies at once. Illinois researchers analyzed how antibodies bind to the influenza protein hemagglutinin.

Antibodies are best known for their ability to latch onto and neutralize bacteria, viruses and other pathogens. But these immune proteins can do more than that: They also activate other components of ...

Over decades, antibodies have established themselves as a key therapeutic modality for a wide range of diseases. But antibodies as they are found in nature did not evolve to be used as drugs, says ...

Many vaccines work by introducing a protein to the body that resembles part of a virus. Ideally, the immune system will produce long-lasting antibodies recognizing that specific virus, thereby ...
