Say hello to our Antibody Champions, supporting institutions across the UK! Better Antibodies, Better Science, Better Patient Outcomes!

⚠️ Half of commercial antibodies miss their target!
So how do you pick the right one for your experiment?

Here’s the solution 👉
Antibody characterization data (all tested in KO cells) are now available at:
🔗 onlygoodantibodies.co.uk

Tested by @ycharos.bsky.social & @oga-community.bsky.social

In Lifecycle Journal's publish-before-review model, research is published before undergoing evaluation. Published submissions are eligible for review by services including @oga-community.bsky.social, a nonprofit that evaluates research that relies on antibodies:

The paper formalizes our method for testing reagent antibodies side-by-side using genetic strategies.

We're helping identify the best performing antibodies for research to help unlock cutting edge discoveries.

YCharOS protocol for antibody validation - Nature Protocols Poorly performing antibodies contribute to the reproducibility crisis in biomedical research. The market offers millions of antibodies and validating them is a cumbersome process. Now, the non-profit ...

The @ycharos.bsky.social antibody characterization protocol using knock-out cells as controls is now published, and endorsed. Remember though that it’s a generic protocol - you still need to do the proper controls for your own experiments! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
