Capillary mediated vitrification is a novel technique that enables storage of antibody critical reagents at ambient temperature: Impact on binding, structure, and laboratory sustainability.

Antibodies and antibody conjugates are essential components of life science research, but their inherent instability necessitates cold storage or lyophilization, posing logistical and sustainability challenges. Capillary-mediated vitrification has shown promise as a tool for improving biomolecule stability. In this study, we assess the feasibility of shipping and storing CMV-stabilized antibody reagents at ambient temperature using a purified rabbit polyclonal as a model system.
