IHC Antibody Procurement & Titration

Concentrated stock in.
A validated working dilution out.

PathABS sources concentrated immunohistochemistry antibodies from manufacturer partners, then contracts histology laboratories to titrate, stain, and certify a working protocol — delivered in the small volumes your bench actually needs.

From vendor stock to bench-ready reagent

A four-stage workflow, run against your control tissue, before anything ships.

01 — Source

Procure

We identify and purchase concentrated clone stock from established manufacturer partners on your behalf.

02 — Prepare

Aliquot & QC

Stock is repackaged into 1–4 mL working volumes with labeling, lot tracking, and QA/QC documentation.

03 — Optimize

Titrate

A contracted histology lab runs a dilution series against known-positive and negative control tissue.

04 — Deliver

Certify & ship

You receive the reagent, a certificate of analysis, and a written staining protocol ready for your bench.

Quality assurance

Your satisfaction is the acceptance criterion.

If the stain isn't right, we make it right

Every dilution is run against control tissue before it ships, but we know optimization sometimes needs a second pass on your own specimens.

If you're not satisfied with the result, we'll re-titrate at no charge or accept the reagent back — no extended negotiation required.

  • Certificate of analysis with every shipment
  • Lot-tracked labeling and QA/QC records
  • Re-optimization or return if staining underperforms
  • Optional in-lab training on the finished protocol

Tell us the marker. We'll quote the work.

Send the clone, species, and tissue you're staining — we'll come back with a timeline and a price for procurement, titration, and certification.
