Our Sheep Polyclonal Antibody service is carried out on our own sites in the UK operating under UK and European regulations.
Our animals are purpose bred for antisera production using the sheep breeds that are larger, more muscular and those that have specific breeding advantages and mothering characteristics, we can naturally produce an antibody model that has the potential to respond to a greater range of antigens and produce larger volumes of serum.
White Antibodies for Custom Sheep Antibodies
Sheep are the ideal choice for large scale custom antibody production where no non-animal alternative exists, some of the benefits include;
1. Large Antibody Production: Sheep have a robust immune response, and can produce large amounts of antibodies. This makes them a suitable choice for generating a significant yield of antibodies needed for Diagnostic kit manufacture for both Veterinary and Medical diagnostics applications for disease conditions in both animals and humans.
2. High Affinity Antibodies: The immune system of sheep can produce high-affinity antibodies, which are crucial for specific binding to antigens. This is particularly important in applications like diagnostics and therapy, where specificity is vital.
3. Diversity of Immune Response: Sheep have a complex immune system capable of producing diverse antibody classes, including IgG, which is commonly used in vaccine research & development.
In summary, sheep are a valuable resource in the field of immunology, Diagnostic Kit manufacture and vaccine development due to their immune response capabilities, size, and the quality of antibodies they produce, please contact White Antibodies for a regular supply of high quality sheep antiserum / antibodies manufactured to the highest standards of quality and animal welfare.
