B Cell-based Quenching Assay
Summary of Quenching Assay
An appropriate method that can be used to monitor the immune responses between the antibody and antigen peptides is valuable for immunogenic epitope discovery. Creative Biolabs offers a beads-based immunoassay to identify epitopes that can bind to specific antibodies. The candidate peptides are conjugated on beads and incubated with positive antibodies. Fluorescent-labeled anti-antibody and different lasers combined to detect the Ab: Ag complex formed on the beads. Creative Biolabs provides a set of beads that is coded with unique labels and has a discriminate spectrum to each other and tailored cancer epitope analysis services using this convenient and moderate throughput beads-based assay.

Detailed Description
|
|
Dose-dependent Ab:Ag Reactive
|
Immunized plasma samples are diluted to multiple doses to monitor dose-related reactions to epitope peptides.
|
|
Peptide-specific ELISA
|
The specific antibody absorption response to each epitope is confirmed using ELISA.
|
|
Peptide-induced T-cell Responses
|
Peptides are expressed on cell lines and inoculated with immunized PBMC to test
IFN-r production, cytotoxicity, and competitive antibody-based inhibition test.
