Boster Bio Offers $600 Custom Antibodies for Zebrafish and Rare-Species Research

Affordable custom antibody production supports researchers studying zebrafish, Drosophila, yeast, plants, C. elegans, Xenopus, mosquitoes, rice, and others.

CA, UNITED STATES, October 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Explore Boster Bio’s $600 Custom Antibody Service for Rare Species and Discontinued Antibodies.

PLEASANTON, Calif., 2026 — Researchers working outside human and mouse systems often face a practical reagent problem: the target may be biologically important, but a suitable antibody may not exist. Commercial catalogs are deepest for human, mouse, and rat targets. For zebrafish, Drosophila, yeast, plants, amphibians, nematodes, insects, and other less commercially supported organisms, antibody availability can become a limiting factor in otherwise viable research.

To help address that gap, Boster Bio is highlighting its $600 custom antibody service for rare species and discontinued antibodies, designed for qualifying projects where researchers need antibodies for non-human and non-murine organisms. Researchers can review eligibility and project requirements at Boster Bio’s $600 Custom Antibody Service for Rare Species and Discontinued Antibodies.

The program is particularly relevant to scientists studying zebrafish (Danio rerio), fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster), yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), mouse-ear cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), Xenopus, Caenorhabditis elegans, mosquitoes, rice, and other organisms that receive less commercial antibody coverage than mainstream mammalian research models.

For laboratories operating on restricted research budgets, the $600 program offers a lower-cost route to developing target-specific antibodies without requiring an in-house antibody production workflow.

Addressing Limited Antibody Availability in Model Organism Research

Researchers working with widely studied human and mouse proteins can often choose from multiple commercially available antibodies. The same is not always true for scientists studying rare species, comparative models, non-traditional models, or organism-specific protein targets.

A suitable antibody may not exist for the target, may have been discontinued, or may not be available for the species required by the experiment. This can slow studies in developmental biology, genetics, neuroscience, microbiology, plant biology, infectious diseases, and comparative biology, especially when custom antibody development falls outside the available project budget.

Boster Bio’s rare-species custom antibody program is intended to help close that reagent-access gap. It gives academic laboratories, early-stage projects, and researchers studying less commercially supported biological systems a more accessible path to custom antibody production.

Custom Antibodies for Zebrafish, Drosophila, Yeast, Plants, and Other Organisms

The service supports custom antibody development for a range of model and research organisms, including zebrafish, fruit flies, yeast, plants, amphibians, nematodes, mosquitoes, rice, and other non-human and non-murine species.

This organism-specific focus matters because antibody availability often decreases as research moves beyond mainstream mammalian targets. Researchers may need an antibody against a zebrafish developmental protein, a Drosophila gene product, a yeast regulatory protein, a plant enzyme, or another target that is not represented in standard antibody catalogs.

Instead of changing an experimental target based on reagent availability, researchers can pursue a custom antibody developed around the protein sequence or antigen required for their study. This makes the program especially useful for laboratories that cannot rely on human, mouse, or rat antibody catalogs and need a reagent designed around the biology of a less commercially supported organism.

Existing DZ-Series Antibodies Demonstrate the Range of Supported Targets

Boster Bio’s existing custom antibody collection includes products developed for several non-standard organisms.
Examples include Anti-Zebrafish EYS Antibody (DZ06950-1), Anti-Zebrafish Rab18b Antibody (DZ33953), Anti-Zebrafish SWD1 Antibody (DZ33920), Anti-Fruit Fly so Antibody (DZ33963), Anti-Fruit Fly Cup Antibody (DZ41190), and Anti-Yeast BRE2 Antibody (DZ33917).

These products illustrate the range of targets that can be addressed through custom antibody development when an appropriate reagent is not readily available from standard catalogs. They also demonstrate how researchers working with zebrafish, Drosophila, yeast, and other less commercially supported organisms can obtain antibodies tailored to specific biological questions.

A Lower-Cost Path to Custom Antibody Development

For qualifying rare-species projects, Boster Bio offers custom rabbit polyclonal antibody production for $600.
Depending on the project, researchers may provide a target sequence, identify the target protein, or submit antigen-related information so that an appropriate development strategy can be evaluated. The program includes support for antigen design, gene synthesis, recombinant protein or antigen expression, antibody production, and final antibody purification, depending on project requirements.

This is important for budget-limited laboratories because antigen development and protein expression can be major cost barriers in custom antibody production. By combining antibody generation with upstream antigen support, the program gives researchers a more practical route to target-specific antibody development.

Supporting Research With More Than Three Decades of Antibody Experience

Boster Bio has supported antibody and immunoassay research since 1993. The company reports a catalog of more than 40,000 antibodies and products cited in more than 70,000 publications.

Its antibody development capabilities include polyclonal antibodies, hybridoma monoclonal antibodies, recombinant monoclonal antibodies, nanobodies, recombinant protein expression, antibody purification, and validation services.

By applying this infrastructure to rare-species and non-standard model organism research, Boster Bio aims to help scientists pursue targets that might otherwise be limited by antibody availability, discontinued reagents, or development cost.

Researchers interested in low-cost custom rabbit polyclonal antibodies for rare species can review the program through Boster Bio’s $600 custom antibody service for rare species and discontinued antibodies.
