Immunization Strategies for Antibody Production

  • Protocol
Book cover Immunochemical Protocols

Part of the book series: Methods In Molecular Biology™ ((MIMB,volume 295))

Abstract

A range of immunization techniques can be used for the successful production of antibodies. The choice of method used is dependent on the nature of the antigen and the type of antibody needed by the user.
