Abinvivo offers a range of antibody products for in vivo research, each designed to meet specific research needs and applications in preclinical studies and antibody development.

Benchmark Positive Antibodies

The Benchmark Positive Antibodies from Abinvivo are designed for applications where strong validation of antibody activity and quality are essential. Each product in this series has been subject to a variety of quality control assays, ensuring high consistency and efficacy across experiments. The Benchmark Positive Antibody series currently offers two main versions: 

  • V6: Meets standard quality benchmarks with endotoxin levels at or below 1 EU/mg, along with a 95% purity rating in SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC testing. This version undergoes bioactivity testing but does not include Host Cell Protein (HCP) or Ion Exchange Chromatography (IEX) testing. Catalog numbers for the V6 series begin with a "B". 

  • V9: This version adheres to more stringent specifications, with an endotoxin threshold of 0.1 EU/mg. Like the V6, it has 95% purity levels confirmed by SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC. However, the V9 also includes additional validation through HCP and IEX testing, providing further assurance for bioactivity-focused research. Catalog numbers for the V9 series start with "BP". 

The Benchmark Positive Antibody series does not yet include a V3 version. Abinvivo is actively working to finalize additional validation methods that may become available across the series in the future. Researchers interested in specific testing or validation inquiries can reach out to Abinvivo’s technical support.

Isotype Negative Antibodies

Isotype Negative Antibodies are used as controls in studies where comparing specific antibody effects are required. Designed to complement functional antibody research, these isotype controls are particularly useful for applications involving the Benchmark Positive antibodies. 

  • V3: The V3 isotype negative version is tailored for researchers who require a control antibody with an endotoxin level of 2 EU/mg and 95% purity via SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC. This product is intended primarily for studies without stringent bioactivity requirements, as it does not undergo bioactivity testing, HCP testing, or IEX validation. Catalog numbers for V3 versions in this series begin with "BH". 

  • V6: Similar to the Benchmark Positive V6, this Isotype Negative antibody version has 1 EU/mg endotoxin level and 95% purity. It is a suitable option for studies needing a control that includes bioactivity testing but excludes HCP and IEX validation. 

  • V9: Designed to meet the most rigorous standards, the V9 Isotype Negative antibody mirrors the specifications of the Benchmark Positive V9. With an endotoxin threshold of 0.1 EU/mg, this antibody is purified to 95% by SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC and includes bioactivity, HCP, and IEX testing. Catalog numbers for V9 products in the Isotype Negative series start with "BP". 

Isotype Negative Antibodies are highly compatible with anti-mouse antibodies, specifically designed to pair with the anti-mouse V3 series for studies requiring control and comparison with functional antibody effects.

Anti-Mouse Antibodies

Abinvivo’s Anti-Mouse Antibodies are designed as recombinant products, ideal for researchers requiring consistent and species-specific interactions. Each product in the series includes modifications that make them uniquely suited for studies in murine models.  

  • V3: The V3 Anti-Mouse Antibody is suitable for applications with lower endotoxin standards (2 EU/mg), with 95% purity confirmed via SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC. This product excludes bioactivity, HCP, and IEX testing, making it a choice for basic research needs where these advanced validations are not required. Catalog numbers for V3 anti-mouse products start with "BH". 

  • V6: This version meets more advanced specifications, with an endotoxin level of 1 EU/mg and 95% purity via SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC, and includes bioactivity testing. It does not undergo HCP or IEX testing. Catalog numbers for V6 anti-mouse antibodies begin with "B". 

  • V9: The V9 Anti-Mouse Antibody is a high-standard recombinant mouse antibody specifically designed for rigorous studies in murine models. With an endotoxin level of 1 EU/mg, 95% purity by SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC, and validation by bioactivity, HCP, and IEX testing, it is the most validated choice within this category. Additionally, the V9 series includes popular clones modified from other species, providing researchers with antibodies that retain functional regions from rat or hamster while featuring a mouse constant region, ensuring compatibility with mouse-specific assays. Catalog numbers for V9 products begin with "BP".
