Phage Display: A Powerful Technology for the Generation of High-Specificity Affinity Reagents from Alternative Immune Sources 2016-05-23 .txt text/plain 6071 241 37 These libraries are analogous to the naïve antibody repertoire in an animal, and selecting from them can result in the identifi cation of antibody fragments that exhibit high specifi city and occasionally high affi nity for the target protein. This process utilizes phage display for selection from germline targeting combinatorial libraries which results in the identifi cation of CDR residues amenable to human germ-lining without compromising on specifi city and affi nity. Nevertheless, phage display can be a relatively simple technology to use and when employed to harness natural repertoires of antibodies from immunized animals, it can offer a rapid path to highly specifi c, high-affi nity antibodies against problematic antigens . The immunized chickens appear to react to the proteins fully independently, as the phage display libraries generate individual scFv antibody clones that are fully specifi c by western blot and ELISA , showing no reactivity to their co-immunogens [ 37 , 59 ] . ./cache/cord-257465-9yrf7ofy.txt ./txt/cord-257465-9yrf7ofy.txt
