Dr. Francisco Ylera, R&D Team Leader at Bio-Rad Laboratories

Development of immunoassays is complex and time consuming. The antibodies you use play a critical role in optimizing selectivity and sensitivity. Having an antibody in only one format can limit your options and producing several different conjugates or alternative formats can be tedious, costly and delay your progress.

In this webinar, Dr. Francisco Ylera, R&D Team Leader at Bio-Rad Laboratories, explains how he incorporated the SpyTag-SpyCatcher technology into the custom HuCAL® recombinant antibody generation service to make 'TrailBlazer Antibodies'. This innovative combination of technologies enables site-directed conjugation of antibodies and rapid assembly of different Fab and full-length formats. The outcome is an extensive antibody toolbox in your hands that provides multiple options for assay design, with the added advantage of a consistent, long-term supply of non-animal-derived antibodies. Join the webinar to learn how TrailBlazer Antibodies can transform your assay development.

AntibodiesAntibodies are used in techniques such as confocal and fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISPOT, immunohistochemistry, western blotting and immunopreciptation. Select specific antigen reactivity, high specific affinity, low non-specific binding, monoclonal or polyclonal, primary or secondary antibodies and associated conjugates such as an enzyme or dye for visualization.Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms. Find the best cell-based assay products, kits and equipment with our peer reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receiving pricing direct from manufacturers.ImmunologyImmunological techniques measure and characterize immune responses. Immunology kits and analysis systems often use techniques such as ELISA, radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunodiffusion assays, Immunohistochemistry, and flow cytometry. Immunologists use equipment such as flow Cytometers, plate readers, plate washers and fluorescent microscopes.ImmunoassayImmunoassays are laboratory tests that utilize antibody-antigen interactions to detect specific substances. They are widely used in diagnostics for detecting diseases, drug testing, and environmental monitoring. These assays offer rapid, sensitive, and precise detection of biomarkers, making them invaluable in clinical and research labs.
