Immunochemistry Research Group
The urgent need for research to produce and quantify polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies and their related antigens highlight the necessity for establishment of Immunochemistry Research Group.
Sufficient information about the chemical structure of antigens, their binding to other biological materials in addition to their application in immunization of lab animals is required to create antigens through different methods i.e. synthesis, purification, and conjugation.
Meanwhile, Immunochemistry Research Group is also responsible to conduct comprehensive research on chemical reactions, affinity and purification of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies as well as conjugation of enzyme and fluorescent to antibodies, providing buffer solution and chemical environment to maximize enzyme and antibodies stability as well as offering Epitote Mapping service in molecular biology.
In summary, the other activities of the Research Group are creation of purified antigens and antibodies, their binding to enzyme and fluorescent used in the quality and quantity analysis of biological materials, quantification of antibodies, designation of Epitope Mapping for biological materials, stabilizing antibodies and antigens in different environments, designing various tests such as ELISA for specific purposes and application of modern methods for improvement of the accuracy and speed of testing.
