Ascites Production for In Vivo Antibody Scale-Up
GenScript’s ascites production service is available in nude and Balb/c mice, with a turnaround time of just 5 – 7 weeks. While the amount of purified antibodies obtained from 5 mice typically ranges between 5 – 50 mg, yield is greatly dependent on the productivity of each individual hybridoma cell line.

Phase I: Cell line submission, recovery, and expansion |
Customer submits:
After the materials and information listed above have been received, the hybridoma cell line will be recovered and examined for contamination. If no contamination is detected, the cell line will be expanded to generate sufficient cells for mouse inoculation. |
1-2 weeks
|
Phase II: Inoculation |
Hybridoma cells will be injected into the mouse peritoneal cavity to commence ascites production. |
2 – 3 weeks
|
Phase III: Harvest |
Ascites fluids are harvested and clarified by centrifugation. Clarified ascites are then aliquoted and immediately frozen or purified. |
