Established Marker and Panel Portfolio

CCIC has established a baseline portfolio of markers and multiplex combinations across cleared-tissue, expanded-tissue, and CODEX-oriented workflows. Marker performance and panel compatibility depend on specimen type, fixation, preparation, labeling conditions, imaging modality, and the biological question. Final marker selection and panel composition are determined during project consultation and may require project-specific optimization.

CCIC also offers project-specific antibody-labeling optimization for antigens not currently shown. As additional antibodies are validated within defined sample-preparation and imaging contexts, this portfolio will be updated.
