MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY PRODUCTION / NANOBODY PRODUCTION
Nanobody Production
Antibody production in alpaca has become a popular service. This is due to the animal's unique ability to generate single-chain antibodies (nanobodies).
We assist R&D-units of companies in generating drug candidates for their next generation of life-saving biological pharmaceuticals.
Starting from antigen, we deliver target-validated recombinant singel-chain VHH drug candidates. For your IP-safety, the entire chain of actions are carried out at our purpose-built organic farm and onsite laboratory facilities.

Capra Science mild and effectiv immunization program for alpacas include all steps necessary to generate a successful immune response for downstream activities of securing top performing monoclonal nanobody candidates.
Our standard immunization program includes both securing polyclonal antiserum and isolation of PBMC for antigen-specific monoclonal VHH-antibody generation. Every new nanobody product we make, has the potential to become a new life-saving drug.
Our services can offer your R&D everything from PBMC, high-quality RNA and cDNA, to positively screened recombinant antigen-specific nanobodies or VHH from your immunized alpaca.

What makes us different
-
Capra Science Organic Farm is located in southern Sweden.
We are proud to say that Swedish authorities have some of the strictest regulations worldwide for animal keeping, ethics and the environment.
In addition we have chosen to be ISO 9001 as well as organically certified. Our farm is certified organic since many years back and has been awarded multiple times for outstanding animal care.
-
Our top priority is to promote healthy animals with strong immune systems.
A strong immune system will give substantially higher levels of antigen-specific antibodies in serum upon an antigen challenge.
-
We have developed unique and gentle immunization programs. The programs are adapted to each host and optimized for a generous production of antigen-specific antibodies.
-
The entire chain of events in antibody production and downstream processes take place onsite. We have a purpose-built organic farm as well as laboratories. We don't work with subcontractors. This guarantees a high level of quality assurance and IP security.
