VAL hybridoma development service content
- ANTIGEN DESIGN: Using bioinformatics, VAL will assist with the selection of the peptide antigen, identifying exposed, hydrophilic, flexible and immunogenic sites.
- PEPTIDE SYNTHESIS & CONJUGATION: Peptide synthesis (at least 80% purity, quality control by HPLC, MS) and conjugation to the desired protein carriers.
- IMMUNISATION: Standard immunization according to a schedule over 42 days.
- CELL FUSION: Splenocytes with best serum antibody response are fused with myeloma cell line.
- HYBRIDOMA SELECTION AND SCREENING: Hybrid cells selection (HAT) and culture supernatant screening vs. target antigen.
- EXPANSION OF BEST CLONES:
- Hybridoma cell lines subcloned to monoclonality & tested in the selected assay systems
- Final antibodies selected and characterised.
- Clones are (i) supplied to sponsor (ii) frozen and banked at VAL premises as back-up. Thereafter the sponsor may elect to have antibody produced/purified by VAL.
