Harnessing knockout validation for reproducible research
Join us on Thursday, 9 July, to learn how Abcam applies KO validation at a large scale and the lessons learned from implementing this initiative
24 Jun 2020Expert insights
The lack of target specificity seen in some antibodies has contributed to the life science ‘reproducibility crisis’. Knockout (KO) validation is one of the most accepted and trusted processes to confirm the specificity of an antibody.
In this upcoming webinar, hear from Dr. Hanna Dreja, Principal Scientist at Abcam, to discover and learn how Abcam applies KO validation at a large scale and the lessons learned from implementing this initiative. From the off-target effects exhibited by some of the top-cited antibodies to the average time to generate specific KO cell lines, you will find out the caveats of KO validation and how you can apply this technology to your research, to achieve reliable results, faster.
