Bispecific antibodies and the quantification of their activity using iLite bioassays
3 Apr 2023In this application note, the use of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is discussed as treatment for many disorders. The note also outlines how bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) work, how they are useful, and how cell-based reporter-gene assays can be used as valuable tools in the development of new therapeutic BsAbs. Different configurations and functions of BsAbs are also described, including how they work in the lysis of cancer cells.

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.
