Automating an ELISA assay for the characterization of antibody functionality
By Jeaneen Kulp, Jackson ImmunoResearch for BRANDTECH Scientific Introduction Jackson ImmunoResearch saw a need to monitor antibody performance at sequential stages of production. Antibody characterization was previously done using a time consuming, complex and physically demanding method which constrained testing to the final step in the process. This led to the loss of valuable decision-making…
