Research Grade Biosimilar Antibodies for Assay Development and Reference Standards

Research Grade Biosimilar Antibodies, also known as recombinant reference monoclonal antibodies (rmAb), are valuable tools for researchers working in immuno-oncology, targeted oncology, autoimmune disease, inflammation, infectious disease, complement biology, respiratory disease, and therapeutic antibody research.

AntibodySystem provides a broad portfolio of research-grade biosimilar antibodies that are recombinant, sequence-defined, and produced in mammalian cells for excellent lot-to-lot consistency. These antibodies are designed for research use as positive controls, reference standards, assay calibrators, neutralization tools, and method-development reagents.

What Are Research Grade Biosimilar Antibodies?

Research grade biosimilar antibodies are non-clinical, research-use-only versions of well-known therapeutic and clinical-stage antibody clones. They are not intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use, but they provide researchers with reliable antibody references for in vitro assay development and validation.

Because these antibodies are sequence-defined and recombinantly expressed, they offer consistent performance across batches. This makes them useful for laboratories developing ELISA, SPR, flow cytometry, Fc receptor binding, neutralization, and blocking assays.
