NeoScientific's standard option for polyclonal antibody is optimized to produce antiserum in the shortest possible time. It is the most affordable option, popular among researchers.
The protocol uses two New Zealand White rabbits that are Specific Pathogen-Free. Injections are subcutaneous (SQ) as emulsions in Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA) or Incomplete Freund's Adjuvant (IFA).
