Chicken IgY antibodies have been touted to be a superior alternative to mammalian antibodies for use in various immunological, molecular biology and proteomics applications for several reasons. These include, but are not limited to, improved specificity due to maximum phylogenetic distance between h

As the importance of swine models in biomedical research increases, it is essential to develop low-cost, high-throughput systems to cryopreserve swine germplasm for maintenance of these models. However, porcine embryos are exceedingly sensitive to low temperature and successful cryopreservation is g

BACKGROUND: The availability of matrix reference materials is essential for the standardisation of (immuno)assays used to measure proteins. The reference material ERM-DA470 (previously called CRM470) certified in 1993 has led to a large degree of harmonisation of these assays. A new serum protein re
