Lab supply firms Photoshop antibody images sixty percent fake! Demand raw data verify before trust. #ScienceIntegrity #AntibodyScandal #ResearchEthics #DataTransparency #StopFakes
Video
Recent investigation (2026-08-28) reveals major lab supply companies systematically Photoshop-ing antibody product images for profit. Analysis shows over 60% of catalog images contain manipulation—spliced lanes, erased bands, adjusted contrast, and copied bands. This wholesale fabrication could lead to retracted papers and wasted researcher resources. The solution is simple never trust catalog images alone—always demand raw validation data and test before committing.

Too many papers treat bioinformatics like a black box—vague methods, missing parameters, and no reproducibility. Would we accept "we used PCR" without primer details?
