This prestation is realized from peptide, recombinant protein, cDNA (genetic immunization), small organisms, haptens, protein extracts etc…

Standard protocol :
- Peptide design
- Peptide synthesis ou Recombinant protein production
- KLH labeling (or any other carrier) if necessary
- Collection of pre-immune serum
- Immunization of Rat
- Delivery of immune serum
- Option : Affinity purification against the antigen or protein G

Key numbers :
- Minimal number of animals in the protocol : 2 (with the possibility to choose the number)
- Protocol length : 35-70 days (depending on protocol)
- Number of injections per animal : 3
- Quantity of antigen per injection : 100-300 µg
- Number of sample collections per animal : 1
- Final amount of antibodies per animal : 3-8 mL

We can develop polyclonal antibodies from other species : Rabbit, Chicken, Guinea Pig, Mouse, Chinese Hamster, Goat, Donkey, Sheep.
