This #FluorescenceFriday we used our recombinant target binding reagent Ankyron® clone CE30111 (green) to detect Perlecan in the extracellular matrix deposited by HUVECs, with nuclei counterstained using DAPI (blue). Image captured using our brilliant @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope.
This #FluorescenceFriday we’re exploring microtubules using Ankyron® clone AP40945, which binds TBCA (red), with DAPI-stained nuclei (blue). Shown in HeLa cells. Image captured with our lovely @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope. Learn more: proimmune.com/ankyron
If #FlowcytometryFriday is more your thing, then Ankyron™ AC40302 works well in this application, shown in HeLa (red histogram, with negative control of secondary fluorophore only in grey).
Fascinating insights this #FluorescenceFriday, into complement delay-accelerating factor (DAF, CD55), identified by our Ankyron™ AC40301 (red) in HeLa cells (nuclei, blue) on @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope.

Exquisite filamentous patterns for #FluorescenceFriday thanks to Ankyron™ AU41488 specific to CD29 cell surface receptor β1 integrin (red) in a dendritic cell, with nucleus counterstained with DAPI (blue), on our lovely @discoverecho.bsky.social Echo Revolve #microscope.

#MicroscopyMonday! IHC with an insulin-specific #animalfree Ankyron AB40258 (brown) clearly identifying β-cells in islets of Langerhans of human pancreas (nuclei in blue) using #Leica autostainer and @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope in colour camera upright configuration. proimmune.com\ankyron
This #FluorescenceFriday we use an Ankyron™ to specifically label the Golgi apparatus marker RCAS1 (red), counterstaining actin cytoskeleton (green) and nucleus (blue) on @discoverecho.bsky.social microscope. Look out for our other organelle-specific #animalfree Ankyrons™ at proimmune.com\ankyron
We were happy to see that this Ankyron also works well in #FlowCytometry, with HUVEC stained with V5-tagged Ankyron and anti-V5 APC (red). Negative control, anti-V5 APC only (grey).
Shining a light on Endoglin (aka CD105) for #FluorescenceFriday, shown in red using #animalfree Ankyron™ clone AY40419 (nuclei blue), highly expressed in vascular endothelial cells like these HUVEC with crucial roles in angiogenesis & TGFβ signaling. On our @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope
This dendritic cell is ready for #FluorescenceFriday! Here, we used our interferon-α8-specific #animalfree Ankyron™ ANK01178_5_AW40550 (red) and nuclei counterstained with DAPI (blue) on @discoverecho.bsky.social #microscope

Delighted that we contributed to exciting work from Zuben Sauna’s lab (FDA) using Ankyrons™ specific to 3 #COVID19 spike protein variants, which neutralized all 3 in a pseudovirus-based neutralization assay.

Our very own Emilee Knowlton, Ph.D., Senior Immunology Sales Specialist, will be speaking at this event about "An Integrated Approach to Managing Immunogenicity Risk and Optimum Protein Design".
We're sponsoring #festofbiologics where science meets strategy!

Join us on April 23-24 in San Diego. From cutting-edge research to advancements in AI-driven drug discovery, this is where breakthroughs happen.
And here's the same #animalfree Ankyron™ specific to β-actin (red), lighting up the cytoskeleton that we highlighted for #FluorescenceFriday last week:
Is #WesternBlotWednesday a thing?! Why not celebrate those perfect western blots? Here's our #animalfree Ankyron™ specifically binding human β-actin (37.3 kDa), both recombinant protein and in cell line lysates. Perfect loading control for westerns!

It's #FluorescenceFriday! We used our #animalfree antibody replacement Ankyron™ (only 15kDa) specifically binding CD31 (PECAM1) fluorescently tagged & small enough to get into tight junctions of endothelial cells using Echo Revolve #microscope @Discover_Echo #immunology #3Rs
Banish January blues this #FluorescenceFriday and look into the lysosomes of Dendritic cells using our animal-free antibody replacement Ankyron™ binding LAMP3 (red), with nuclei counterstained with DAPI (blue). Imaging carried out with our @Discover_Echo #microscope. www.proimmune.com/ankyron/
