Antibodies are versatile tools for the detection of proteins, peptides or other molecules. Some of the major applications for antibodies are:
- protein detection in e.g. Western blots
- immunoprecipitation of antibody-antigen complexes
- Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISAs)
- immunochemistry/immunocytochemistry
- isolation and study of specific cell types by flow cytometry
- production of antibody arrays
