Creative Biolabs offers the unique native chicken IgY antibody production service by our proprietary Native™ Antibody Discovery Platform. This platform can produce extraordinarily high specificity and affinity native antibodies to be used for biomedical research and antibody manufacturing.
In the antibody research, chicken is considered an ideal host for generating antibodies against mammalian or human protein antigens. Since chickens are at least 100 million years removed from mammals, they tend to recognize any mammalian gene product as foreign, and mount vigorous immune responses. In addition, a faster antibody response can occur in chicken hosts compared to in mammalian species. Moreover, the process of producing chicken antibodies is also much easier compared to other host species, as the specific antibodies are generally isolated from the egg yolk.
