Check antibody specificity correctly
Not every antibody automatically provides specific results. Careful validation helps to reduce background signals and misinterpretations.
Important approaches:
- Knockout/knockdown controls
check whether the signal is really target-specific
- Orthogonal methods
Comparison with independent detection methods such as PCR or mass spectrometry
- Application validation
An antibody for Western blot does not automatically work for IF or IHC
The right validation strategy improves reproducibility and data quality.
