Antigen Discovery | Development
Antigens are substances that promote an immune response when introduced into the body. In small amounts, they are useful in the production of vaccines, as well as in developing methods for detecting disease pathogens in patients or in the blood supply. Currently, there are many global diseases for which there are no vaccines and for which improved diagnostic products are needed. Our Antigen Development team has experience producing antigens, typically proteins or complex sugars called "polysaccharides," that can be used to diagnose and vaccinate against these diseases.
Our Antigen Development team uses many techniques to identify potential vaccine antigens. We currently possess proprietary antigens that are being used in a number of vaccine development programs.
We are interested in collaborating with others with novel antigens, as well as partnering with entities with complementary technology that can be used together with our antigens for additional vaccine and diagnostic programs.
