The World of PepMix™
PepMix™ Peptide Pools mimic a protein by representing all T cell stimulating overlapping peptides. They stimulate antigen-specific T cell responses and can be used for a wide variety of applications ranging from antigen and epitope discovery, immune monitoring in research and clinical trials to the development of diagnostic tests and adoptive cell therapy.
JPT's PepMix™ became the gold standard for antigen-specific T cell stimulation in assays such as ELISPOT and flow cytometry because of its
- Highest quality warranted by ISO 9001 certified manufacturing
- Complete protein coverage guaranteed for all protein-spanning peptide pools
- High batch-to-batch consistency
- Proprietary capping process to avoid de novo epitopes
- Minimized cross contamination with unrelated peptides
- State-of-the-art elimination of residual toxic chemicals
- Low bioburden workflow
- Largest selection of catalog peptide pools in the market; continuously updated to cover recent developments (e.g. outbreaks and viral variants)
PepMix™ Applications
PepMix™ Peptide Pools are used for a variety of applications:
- Antigen-specific stimulation in T cell assays (e.g. in ELISpot, cytokine staining, cell-mediated cytotoxicity or proliferation assays)
- In-vitro T cell expansion and dendritic cell pulsing
- Immune monitoring in research and in clinical trials
- Monitoring tool for virus outbreaks
- Cellular immune response profiling
- T cell epitope identification
- Assay control and standardization of T cell assays
