Monoclonal antibodies

In the antibody laboratory, we develop monoclonal antibodies against different antigens provided by FMI members. We advise and assist in the preparation of the antigen for immunization and in the development of an assay for evaluation of the sera and the hybridoma supernatants. We are equipped to prepare, maintain and characterize monoclonal antibodies. Antibody production takes about 6 months. The laboratory has facilities for preparing, maintaining and freezing hybridoma cells. This includes laminar-flow benches, incubators, deep freezers, liquid nitrogen containers, immunoassay reagents for antibody screening and an ELISA reader.
