The Centre for Human Specific Research has launched its Recombinant Antibodies & Mimetics Database. The database categorizes the origins, discovery, and production of recombinant antibodies and antibody mimetics, with a focus on the involvement of animals and animal-derived biomaterials in their manufacture. The database employs a colour-coding system to categorize recombinant antibodies and mimetics based on their discovery and production methods. All antibodies featured in the database are recombinant, sequence-defined reagents expressed in vitro. However, they differ in their sources, discovery methods, and the extent to which animal-derived biomaterials (ADBs) are used in their development or production.

The Centre for Human Specific Research was established to address the fundamental challenges that prevent the advancement of human-specific research by companies and institutions. Through increasing awareness, education, and collaboration they aim to support individuals and organisations in their adoption of human-specific research.
