I have used antibodies mostly from Abcam and Cell Signalling with good results in antobodies like anti-iNOS and MAPKs in Western blot.
But their prices have risen sharply in the last couple of years, so I am looking for more affordable alternatives.
I am considering ABclonal. Can anyone with experience buying antibodies from them share your experience?
How do their antibodies compare? Specificity, sensibility, reproducibility...
Any other alternatives are welcome.
Thanks.
Dear Dr Nuno J Machado
You can approach for free samples of antibody available from:
Santa Cruz
Bethyl Laboratories
or others (Use Biocompare and citeab.com for citation references)
They are comparatively cheap and see if it works out for you or not. Good Luck.
Hi Nuno,
An economical way for using Abs are reusing them. We use Abs from cell signaling but not just for one time. We collect all primery Abs after using, then keeping in under twenty freezer for several time using.
This is a good way to reduce the cost and to keep the quality.
