On-Demand Webinar: Accelerating Antibody Discovery using Advanced Flow Cytometry
Duration: 30 minutes
The past decade has seen an explosion in the number of antibody-based therapeutics on the market. A huge driver of this, has been the advancement of technologies which improve the efficiency of antibody discovery.
Robust, high-throughput techniques for screening antibody libraries, have led to better quality hits in shorter timescales. In addition, combining several in vitro methods to assess a broad range of antibody parameters, such as Fc function characteristics and target binding, builds a full profile of a candidate molecule and informs pre-clinical studies.
The webinar includes discussion on:
- The use of advanced flow cytometry to assess antibody/cell interactions in the context of live cell antibody binding, competition and internalization
- How the high throughput iQue® Advanced Flow Cytometry Platform can speed up antibody screening
- Fc functional characterization of monoclonal antibodies using the iQue® with associated phenotype and function kits
