The peptide is first anchored on the solid support, such as functionalized polypropylene and glass, by its amino acid at C-terminal. And the additional residues are successively added to constitute the whole epitope sequence.
Creative Biolabs provides a powerful solution for projects requiring deep insight into the humoral immune response. You can expect to receive a comprehensive profile of a patient's or animal model's antibody repertoire, enabling the identification of key B cell epitopes, the evaluation of vaccine efficacy, and the discovery of novel biomarkers for disease. Our platform delivers high-resolution data on both IgM and IgG antibody responses from a single, minimal sample, a capability that is particularly critical for early disease detection and understanding the full scope of an immune response.
Antibodies can recognize and bind to target protein antigens via linear or conformational epitopes exposed on molecular surfaces. Peptide microarrays consist of comprehensive proteomes of pathogens or cellular mutant proteins that are widely used for B and T cell epitope mapping and identification of targets for diagnosis and vaccine by the antibody. Serum from patients with an infectious disease or various cancers can be applied to screen peptide microarrays with a library of human proteins to identify disease-related antibodies. By analyzing the sequence of antibody-bound antigens or epitopes displayed on the array, epitope peptides showing higher reactivity can be determined.

Epitope residue library consists of peptides generated from cancer protein antigens using at least one of the six methods below:
The peptide is first anchored on the solid support, such as functionalized polypropylene and glass, by its amino acid at C-terminal. And the additional residues are successively added to constitute the whole epitope sequence.
Peptides are first synthesized on the solid support of cellulose.
The soluble peptides are cleaved from the bound cellulose matrix and then spotted on the planar surfaces of glass using a non-contact printer or a contact printer.
Antigens or peptides can be covalently conjugated to different magnetic bead identities. An equal number of beads is collected in a pool to create a bead-based array for epitope mapping.

Unlike traditional methods that are typically low-throughput and require large sample volumes to screen for a single target, our B cell-based microarray assay is a high-throughput, multiplexed platform. It allows for the simultaneous screening of thousands of antigens from a single, minimal sample, providing a far more comprehensive view of the immune response in less time and at a lower cost.
Our platform is highly versatile and can detect various types of antibodies, including both IgM and IgG, which is critical for distinguishing between a primary and a secondary immune response. The assay is also designed to identify specific B-cell epitopes within complex antigens, offering a level of detail that is difficult to achieve with other technologies.
Our cutting-edge immunogenicity prediction services use advanced algorithms to predict the immunogenic potential of drug candidates before they are synthesized, saving you valuable time and resources.
