YCharOS Inc. is a Canadian, public interest, open science company with the mission of characterizing commercially available antibody reagents for every human protein.
Our gold standard genetic characterization process uses both a cell line expressing adequate endogenous levels of the target protein and a CRISPR knockout version of the same cell line as a negative control. The applications tested are immunoblot, immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence.
We are committed to following the open science principles and all our methods and results will be transparent and patent-free.
