Immunogens & Antibody Development

Antibody Production Services
IBA provides custom approaches to both polyclonal and monoclonal antibody production. We offer our expertise in designing custom peptide and immunization protocols or you can simply provide the sequence or antigen of choice for us to execute in our system. Need your antibody purified? Characterized? Conjugated? IBA can provide a package that includes antibody production, purification, and conjugation according to your needs and applications.

Peptide Design and Synthesis
Our peptide design and synthesis services are available to be your ally in creating the optimal peptide for successful antibody production designed to meet your needs and applications. Whether it is KLH, BSA, or OVA, IBA will design your protocol around the appropriate carrier protein for optimal antigen delivery. Our process provides the greatest chance for success by addressing issues like antigen solubility, specificity, purity, and immunogenicity.

Client Provided Antigens
If in need of a vehicle for antibody production, IBA is your ally. Simply provide IBA the appropriate amount of antigen (typically 4-5 mg at greater than 75% pure) and we can implement our immunization protocols to generate a specific antibody. By further augmenting this service with purification and conjugation add-ons, we can provide you with the convenience and comfort of knowing that your investment and time is being well spent.

Antibody Production
With antigen and protocol in place IBA will begin the 70 to 90 day process of immunization. This service is available for polyclonal antibody production using goat, rabbit, or rat. Alternatively, you can choose a mouse model for monoclonal antibody production. These services include three serum collections including pre-bleed and assessment of immunization efficacy via Western blot or ELISA.

Antibody Purification
IBA offers varying levels of purification to provide the needed level of pure antibody product. You can choose from the following list of available purification methods to better suit your needs and applications:

• Protein A Affinity
• Protein G Affinity
• Ion Exchange

• Antigen Affinity
• Hydrophobic Interaction
• Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC)

Antibody Conjugation
Many of our client applications involve the need for antibody conjugation. IBA offers this service as an additional add on benefit. You can choose from the following list of molecules for conjugation.

• Fluorescein (FITC)
• Phycoerythrin (PE)
• Cy5PE
• Cy7PE
• Texas Red (TR)
• Alkaline Phosphatase
• Horse Radish Peroxidase
• Allophycocyanin (APC)
• Cy5
• Cy7APC
• Cascade Blue
• Biotin
