On February 14, 2023, Bio-Techne Corporation and Cell Signaling Technology (CST) announced that CST antibodies now have Simple Western™ validation. This will make it easier for researchers from numerous disciplines to study essential molecular signaling pathways on a reliable and validated platform.
Accurate data must be obtained quickly and efficiently in order to advance drug discovery and development. This continued collaboration will provide a broader menu of Simple Western validated antibodies for a variety of targets across several disciplines.
Simple Western systems from ProteinSimple, a brand of Bio-Techne, are the only completely automated western blotting solutions for protein identification and characterization, with results available in as little as 3 hours. Cell Signaling Technology (CST) is a leading developer of antibodies and other related reagents for elucidating cell signaling pathways that govern cellular behavior and have an impact on human health.
CST has finished assay validation and optimization for a variety of its antibodies on the Simple Western platform, making it easier than ever to develop new reliable and robust immunoassays for the quantification and detection of phospho and total proteins. When using CST primary antibodies with Simple Western validation, researchers can simply dilute the antibody to the appropriate dilution range found on the data sheet and product page. In addition, CST antibodies are Simple Western protocol compliant, which allows users to include these thoroughly validated antibodies into their existing workflows seamlessly.
