Antibodies against small molecules constitute an easy, fast and cost-efficient alternative to HPLC and mass spectrometry when it comes to small molecule detection. ImmuSmol, in addition to developping antibodies against small molecule targets, offers to validate immunodetection protocols for small molecule visualization by IHC/IF, or quantification by ELISA.

Core advantages of antibodies to small molecules

• Qualitative data: imaging of small molecules by IHC/IF in cells or tissues
• Fast quantification: 96-well plate ELISA format, 4-hour leadtime
• Ease of use & cost: – compatibility with routine immunodetection technologies
