Antibodies are indispensable tools for research, diagnosis, and therapy. Recombinant approaches allow the modification and improvement of nearly all antibody properties, such as affinity, valency, specificity, stability, serum half-life, effector functions, and immunogenicity. "Antibody Engineering" provides a comprehensive toolbox covering the well-established basics but also many exciting new techniques. The protocols reflect the latest "hands on" knowledge of key laboratories in this still fast-moving field. Newcomers will benefit from the proven step-by-step protocols, which include helpful practical advice; experienced antibody engineers will appreciate the new ideas and approaches. The book is an invaluable resource for all those engaged in antibody research and development.

Product Description: As the field of antibody engineering continues its explosive growth, more and more scientists around the world are striving to keep up with the latest developments. Now in its second edition, Antibody Engineering is the perfect one-stop introduction to state-of-the-art technologies emerging in the field today...read more

Product Description: Recombinant DNA techniques have revolutionized the isolation and production of antibodies. This volume describes methods and technologies which will allow the researchers to isolate a new antibody, analyse its properties, format the correct antibody or fragment, and produce sufficient quantities for experimental use...read more

Product Description: The Antibody Enigma is a somewhat personal view of the antibody diversity question from two investigators who have spent the past 18 years trying to penetrate the enigma. It is not and was not meant to be an all-embracing comprehensively referenced review of the subject of antibody diversity...read more
