Poor antibody validation wastes millions of biological samples
Original: Poor antibody validation wastes millions of biological samples, but solutions exist
Researchers warn that poorly validated antibodies are causing millions of biological samples to be wasted, undermining the reliability of biomedical research. Writing in a report covered by Medical Xpress, scientists point to inconsistent antibody performance as a major source of irreproducible results, but say practical solutions exist, including better validation standards and stricter quality control before antibodies are used in experiments.
Why now: Concerns about reproducibility and waste in biomedical research keep antibody validation standards in the spotlight.
