ANTIBODY PROBLEMS?

Have difficult targets to

develop effective
antibodies? What if an
antibody doesn't exist for
your target/antigen?
Aptagen develops and
manufactures aptamers
which are ligands of
RNA/DNA and peptide
oligos that bind to a variety
of target antigens.
Aptamers are sometimes
referred to as chemical
antibodies or DNA
antibodies. Contact Us for
the only aptamer catalog in
the world.
For Example: Aptamers have
been generated that exhibit
greater than 10,000-fold
binding affinity for
theophylline over caffeine,
which differ from one
another in structure by only a
single methyl group.

Benefits of Using Aptamer Oligos?

Manufacturing costs and time are all lower compared to that of monoclonal antibody
production.
Once the aptamer sequence is known, the aptamer can be produced on the fly using
an oligo synthesizer to meet ones immediate needs.
Easy to label with reporters, enzymes, or fluorescent tags.
