- Please tell us about yourself and your research/institution.
I am Associate Professor at University Federico II of Napoli (Italy) who received a PhD in Applied Biology at the University of Naples, Federico II in 2016, and I was research associate at National Research Council of Italy, Institute of Biomolecular Chemistry from 2018 to 2019. My institution represents the most ancient non-religious University in the World (801 years old) funded by Federico II of Svevia. My research activity focuses on the response of plants to abiotic stresses and on the enzymes related to central and secondary metabolism. We worked both on model organisms and on recombinant proteins using classical and advanced approaches.
In my opinion, plant science is a cornerstone of research topics. The use of plants and photosynthetic organisms in general is of great interest in both basic science and biotechnological applications.
- How have you used (Agrisera) antibodies in your research?
We primarily use Agrisera as antibodies for Western blotting. Almost all of our antibody collection comes from Agrisera. We find them to be effective for plants and that the catalog is so extensive that we can almost always find what we're looking for. We also find it very useful to collaborate in exchanging untested antibodies that can be used experimentally.
