Here at White Antibodies, we specialise in the development and production of high-affinity polyclonal antibodies tailored to your specific research or diagnostic needs.
With over 30 years’ experience in antibody production, we deliver reproducible, high-yield polyclonal antibodies with consistent performance across a wide range of applications.
What are Polyclonal Antibodies
Polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) are a heterogeneous mix of immunoglobulin molecules produced by different B cell clones in response to an antigen. Unlike monoclonal antibodies, which recognise a single epitope, polyclonal antibodies bind to multiple epitopes on the same antigen. This makes them particularly valuable in applications where sensitivity, signal amplification, or recognition of conformational variants is essential.
Polyclonal antibodies are commonly used in:
- ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay)
- Western blotting
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC)
- Flow cytometry
- Immunoprecipitation
- Diagnostic test development

The advantages of Polyclonal Antibodies
Polyclonal antibodies offer several advantages depending on the application:
- Broad Epitope Recognition: Increases the chance of detecting target proteins even if some epitopes are masked or denatured
- Higher Signal Intensity: Ideal for detection-based assays such as Western blot and IHC
- Rapid Production Timelines: Faster than monoclonal development, especially for urgent research deadlines
- Cost-Effective: Suitable for labs needing reliable results without the complexity or cost of monoclonal antibodies
Whether you’re working in proteomics, cell biology, or diagnostic kit development, our polyclonal antibodies provide the flexibility and performance you need.
Customisation Options for Polyclonal Antibody Projects
At White Antibodies, we understand that each project is unique. That’s why we offer full customisation at every stage of the production pipeline:
Antigen Design and Peptide Synthesis
We help design immunogenic peptides or source recombinant proteins, ensuring your target is accurately represented.
Host Species Selection
Choose from rabbit, goat, or sheep — each species offers unique immunological benefits depending on your target and application.
Purification and Validation
We offer both protein A/G purification and antigen-specific affinity purification, along with optional validation services such as ELISA testing, Western blot analysis, and titre measurement.
Applications of our Polyclonal Antibodies
Our custom-produced polyclonal antibodies are used by researchers, diagnostic developers, and biotech companies around the world in fields such as:
- Infectious disease research
- Cancer biomarker detection
- Neurobiology
- Veterinary diagnostics
- Environmental testing
If you’re developing a diagnostic kit or investigating protein expression in tissue samples, we can help produce antibodies tailored to your exact requirements.
