- Our Polyclonal Antibody Service includes experience handling Live bacterial and viral antigens.
- These can be held on site at -20C or -80C prior to inoculation.
- We have experience designing protocols specifically for live antigens where tolerance to the initial
Inoculations are vital for both a sustained IgG response and a healthy animal. - We regularly handle Class 2 & 3 organisms (ACDP), as part of our COSHH assessment it may be necessary to quarantine animals in negative containment buildings or individual pens.
