Antibodies for Biomedical Research
Antibodies are an unparalleled tool for use in biomedical research because they bind with high affinity and specificity to a variety of molecules – most notably proteins and peptides. They are used in procedures where characterization, quantification, localization or verification of a protein is necessary.
