Fast-Track antibodies
Our customers have told us that they want cutting-edge products released quickly
so that their research is not impeded. Abcam is therefore pleased to be able to
offer researchers access to products that are still in development.
Fast-Track antibodies constitute a diverse group of products that have undergone
variable degrees of characterization. They have all been affinity purified and show
high titre values against the immunizing peptide (by ELISA).
As a general rule, Fast-Track antibodies fall into two main categories:
- Cutting-edge products: these are released quickly to meet customer needs and
requirements; the products are still undergoing further tests and characterization steps
- Products which are more complex to characterize due to low levels/lack of expression in easily
available lysates or problems experienced in searching for or developing the correct lysate/cell line
For these reasons, we release Fast-Track antibodies at a reduced price under the following terms:
- As these antibodies have not been fully characterized at Abcam, we cannot guarantee that the
antibody will work in any application other than ELISA against the immunizing peptide and they
are therefore not covered by the full Abpromise guarantee
- Our experienced Scientific Support Team is happy to offer protocol tips and advice to help improve the results obtained
- Whenever possible, Abcam will also make available data provided by customers that have bought a Fast-Track antibody,
the information provided should be used as a guideline only
Feedback reward
We would greatly appreciate your feedback on these antibodies, whether positive or negative. We will
award 950 bonus Abpoints to the first researcher who sends us positive feedback (including an image and
details of materials and methods). Conclusive negative feedback that leads us to withdraw the antibody will
also be rewarded with 950 bonus Abpoints. Other useful positive and negative feedback will be rewarded with
the standard Abpoints for submitting an Abreview (please refer to Abreviews terms and conditions for more
detailed information). All awards are subject to approval by Abcam scientists and provision of suitable data.
