AtaGenix Laboratories
AtaGenix develops custom anti-idiotype antibodies (Anti-ID Abs) that specifically target the unique variable region (idiotype) of therapeutic antibody drugs. Anti-ID antibodies are essential reagents for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis, anti-drug antibody (ADA) immunogenicity testing, and neutralizing antibody (NAb) assays throughout biopharmaceutical development.

Guaranteed for Sandwich ELISA
We offer three functionally distinct types of monoclonal Anti-ID antibodies to support different bioanalytical assay configurations, plus a polyclonal Anti-ID option for ADA-positive control development. Our guaranteed paired antibody service delivers matched Anti-ID pairs that recognize different idiotopes — pre-validated for sandwich ELISA kit development. Our reagent brand abinScience also maintains a catalog of 120+ off-the-shelf Anti-ID products covering 30+ therapeutic drugs — check availability before starting a custom project.
| Type | Mechanism | Application in PK/ADA |
| Neutralizing (Blocking) | Binds the antigen-binding site (CDR) of the drug antibody, competing with the drug's target | Detects free drug in serum (unbound to target); NAb positive control |
| Non-neutralizing | Binds the variable region outside the CDR; does not compete with target binding | Detects total drug (free + target-bound); ADA bridging assay |
| Drug–Target Complex | Recognizes an epitope formed only when the drug is bound to its target | Detects target-bound drug specifically; complex PK profiling |
Guaranteed Paired Antibodies
We deliver matched Anti-ID pairs that recognize different idiotopes on your drug antibody and are pre-validated for sandwich ELISA pairing. This dramatically increases the success rate of downstream PK/ADA kit development.
Dual mAb Platform: Mouse + Rabbit
Both mouse hybridoma and rabbit single B cell platforms are available for Anti-ID development. Rabbit mAbs offer higher affinity and faster turnaround (2–3 months); mouse mAbs provide compatibility with established secondary antibody panels.
120+ Catalog Anti-ID Products
Our reagent brand abinScience offers 120+ off-the-shelf Anti-ID antibodies covering 30+ therapeutic drugs, plus 196 PK ELISA kits and 28 NAb/ADA kits. If your target drug is covered, purchase directly. If not, AtaGenix custom-develops it for you.
AtaGenix provides anti-idiotype antibody development using mouse hybridoma, rabbit single B cell (Xten™ Mab), and rabbit polyclonal platforms. Three functionally distinct mAb Anti-ID types are available: neutralizing (blocking), non-neutralizing, and drug–target complex-specific. Our guaranteed paired antibody service delivers matched Anti-ID pairs pre-validated for sandwich ELISA, accelerating downstream PK/ADA assay kit development. Drug substance can be client-provided (≥85% purity + isotype control), sourced from our abinScience catalog of 2,500+ Research Biosimilars, or expressed recombinantly via CHO/HEK293. Timelines: rabbit mAb 2–3 months, mouse mAb 4–6 months, rabbit pAb 4–6 months.

| Assay Need | Recommended Anti-ID Type | Format |
| Free drug PK | Neutralizing (blocking) — competes with target for CDR binding | Capture + detection pair |
| Total drug PK | Non-neutralizing — binds outside CDR, detects drug regardless of target binding | Capture + detection pair |
| ADA bridging assay | Non-neutralizing (as positive control) | Single Anti-ID as ADA surrogate |
| NAb assay | Neutralizing (as NAb-positive control) | Single Anti-ID as NAb surrogate |
| Immunogenicity (pAb control) | Polyclonal Anti-ID — mimics diverse ADA population in patient serum | pAb as positive reference |
Check if your drug is already covered: Browse our abinScience Anti-ID catalog (120+ products, 30+ drugs). Need the drug substance? Source from our 2,500+ Research Biosimilars, or express via CHO Transient / HEK293. For antibody discovery, see Rapid Hybridoma, Rabbit Single B Cell, or Phage Display.
What is the difference between neutralizing and non-neutralizing Anti-ID antibodies?
Neutralizing (blocking) Anti-IDs bind the CDR region of the drug antibody and compete with the drug's target for binding — they detect only the free (unbound) drug in serum. Non-neutralizing Anti-IDs bind the variable region outside the CDR, so they detect the drug whether or not it is bound to target — measuring total drug concentration. Your PK assay design determines which type you need; many programs require both.
What is the guaranteed paired antibody service?
AtaGenix delivers matched Anti-ID pairs that recognize different idiotopes on your drug antibody and are pre-validated to work together in a sandwich ELISA format. This means one Anti-ID serves as capture and the other as detection, with confirmed non-competing epitopes. This paired delivery significantly accelerates PK/ADA kit development by eliminating the trial-and-error of testing random clone combinations.
Should I choose mouse or rabbit mAb Anti-ID?
Rabbit mAb Anti-IDs (via our Xten™ Mab platform) offer higher affinity, broader epitope diversity, and faster turnaround (2–3 months). Mouse mAb Anti-IDs (via hybridoma, 4–6 months) are preferred when your downstream assay requires mouse-origin antibodies for compatibility with existing secondary antibody detection systems. Both platforms are available, and AtaGenix can recommend the optimal species based on your assay configuration.
Do I need to provide the drug antibody, or can you source it?
You can provide your own purified therapeutic antibody (≥85% purity), or we can source it for you. Our reagent brand abinScience maintains a catalog of 2,500+ Research Biosimilar reference antibodies covering virtually all marketed therapeutic mAbs (Adalimumab, Trastuzumab, Bevacizumab, Nivolumab, Pembrolizumab, Rituximab, etc.). These are ready to use as immunogens for Anti-ID development. Alternatively, AtaGenix can express your antibody recombinantly via our CHO or HEK293 platform if the sequence is available.
Can I also get PK ELISA kits or ADA detection kits?
Yes. abinScience offers 196 PK ELISA kits and 28 NAb/ADA ELISA kits as off-the-shelf catalog products. If your target drug is covered, you can purchase the kit directly. If not, AtaGenix can develop a custom Anti-ID pair and then build a PK or ADA ELISA kit around it as an add-on service. This means you can get Anti-ID antibodies + finished detection kits + biosimilar reference standards all from one source.
Anti-ID specificity and affinity are dependent on the drug antibody's variable region structure. Paired antibody service requires sufficient idiotope diversity on the drug antibody. Cross-reactivity profiling against isotype control and human IgG is included in QC. Product counts are based on current catalog and may change. Quote-based pricing.
