EMERYVILLE, Calif., Nov. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Berkeley Lights, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLI), a leader in digital cell biology, today announced its participation at the upcoming Antibody Engineering & Therapeutics (AE&T) meeting, being held from December 4 - 8, 2022, in San Diego, California. During the AE&T meeting, the latest antibody science, technologies, and academic and industry partners come together to accelerate next-generation antibodies towards commercial success.
Berkeley Lights will showcase its Beacon® Optofluidic System and single B-cell antibody discovery workflows at AE&T booth #401. Meeting participants who visit the Berkeley Lights booth can receive a demonstration of the Opto® B Discovery workflows on the Beacon Optofluidic System that enable functional profiling of the B cell repertoire to discover a broad diversity of antibody hits and rapidly down-select lead candidates.
In addition, Berkeley Lights will discuss its recently launched Opto® Memory B Discovery Rabbit workflow, which Berkeley Lights estimates can:
- Screen approximately 15,000 to 60,000 single cells per workflow, depending on chip selection and number of chips used per workflow;
- Identify hundreds to thousands of antigen-specific hits per workflow; and
- Recover high-quality antibody sequences for the majority of discovered hits.
