in vitro Diagnostics.
Ensure and validate at every step of the way.
Immunoassays provide a fast, simple, and cost-effective method of detection with high sensitivity and specificity. They exploit antibodies’ properties to identify pathogens, cancer, and other disease biomarkers, drugs, and other analytes. Without a secure stream of validated monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), IVD developers risk nonspecific binding, batch variability, or loss of supply. At the discovery and development stage, the latter can result in wasted time and resources, or worse, project abandonment, while downstream, during manufacturing, it can lead to substantial costs.
By sequencing the protein of the antibody reagent in parallel to assessing the antibody’s affinity and specificity prior to use, scientists, kit, and reagent manufacturers can eliminate unforeseen surprises. Furthermore, obtaining the protein sequence enables recombinant expression, yielding more consistent batches with predictable biological activity. Next-generation protein sequencing (NGPS) can also help avoid issues with mAbs stemming from cell line drift, gene loss, and gene mutations. Rapid Novor’s NGPS has facilitated the development of reliable kits and immunoreagents securing scientists’ research reproducibility and their trust.

Next Generation Protein Sequencing in Veterinary Medicine and Industry
Since 2006, the One Health Initiative (OHI)’s goal has been to demonstrate the inextricable link between humans, animals, and the environment. Certainly, the current global pandemic is a great testament to the ties between climate change, humans, and animals that OHI has been working to highlight. The rise of other zoonotic diseases (e.g., Hendra, and Nipah viruses) not only directly affect humans through disease transmission but may also result in deep impacts to the food supply
Ushering the New Era in Anti-Drug Antibody Assays with Next Generation Protein Sequencing
Anti-drug antibody (ADA) assays are critical to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of a biological drug and rely on control reagents that mimic the ADA response to the biological drug being tested. These positive controls typically consist of animal-derived pooled polyclonal antibodies or human monoclonal antibody reference panels against the target protein drug.
