From Discovery to Production
The broad AVS Bio portfolio provides life sciences companies with a consistent, scalable, high-quality supply of well-characterized materials for discovery and production.
The product portfolio features an array of avian-derived biologicals and recombinant, disease-focused reagents (antibodies, antigens, enzymes, hybridomas, and proteins) that are instrumental in discovery and development of diagnostics and medicines for human and animal health as well as environmental monitoring and testing applications.
AVS Bio products not only support critical research, testing, and production across human, animal, and environmental health, the company, through its Antibody Discovery & Development Services, also partners directly with biopharma companies to accelerate discovery and bring new therapies to market faster.
Applications
Diagnostics
- Antigens, deaminated proteins, and other products are used as standards and controls for developing disease assays (infectious disease, autoimmune).
- Antibodies and hybridomas are used as capture/detection reagents for ELISA, lateral flow, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry.
- Enzyme activity assays measure enzyme-linked biomarkers and support kit development and validation.
Therapeutics
- Organoid growth factors are used in advanced organoid models for drug discovery and toxicity testing.
- Antibodies and hybridomas are common starting points for discovering, engineering, and producing therapeutic antibodies.
- Antigens, deaminated proteins, and other products are used to define disease-relevant targets.
- Natural and engineered enzymes serve as therapeutic targets or screening reagents.
- Proven platforms, technology, and expertise, to accelerate antibody discovery breakthroughs (see Antibody Discovery & Development Services).
Vaccines
- Antigens are used as reference materials to test immune response and vaccine potency.
- Antibodies are used in potency, neutralization, and quality control assays.
- Organoid growth factors support host–pathogen organoid models for infection and vaccine target studies.
- Deaminated proteins are used to study immune response and tolerance.
Environmental Applications
- Antibodies and hybridomas enable detection of pathogens, toxins, or contaminants in water, food, and soil.
- Antigens used as standards for pathogen detection assays.
- Enzyme assays are used as biosensors that signal environmental contamination.
- Growth factors support toxicology and exposure studies in organoid systems.
