Antibodies are highly selective agents that can be used to target a variety of cancers and pathogenic infections in humans. Antibody production is usually carried out using mammalian cell culture. However, during production, these cells produce proteases that degrade the antibodies, thus necessitating the use of protease inhibitors. Scientists from the National Institute's of Health […]
Multiplex immunoassays and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) are used to determine and analyze the presence of an analyte in a sample through the binding of complimentary antigen-antibody pairs. Multiplex immunoassays are useful in cases of limited sample volume or time. molekuul_be | Shutterstock Multiplex immunoassays can be differentiated by the surface to which the antigens […]
ChIP-seq, or chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing, is a technique that allows researchers to understand transcriptional regulation via mapping of protein-DNA interactions and epigenetic markers on a genome-wide scale. ChIP-seq has several advantages over previous methods, such as ChIP-chip, but like all techniques, ChIP-seq has its limitations. urfin | Shutterstock ChIP-seq ChIP-seq was one of the […]
