Bioconjugation
Crosslinking or attachment of one molecule to another using a variety of reagents and reactions. Optimizing hydrophilicity, stability, and activity in the final conjugate.
Modification
Adding custom functionality or reactivity to a biomolecule to facilitate further reactions in the preparation of bioconjugates. Activation of proteins, thiolation, PEGylation, etc.
Labeling
Modifying biomolecules with labels to create detectable conjugates for use in assays or imaging. Biotinylation, fluorescent dyes, fluorescent proteins, or enzyme labels.
Assay Development
ELISA and Fluorescent immunoassays for research or diagnostics. Improve sensitivity, reduce background, enhance reagent stability. Western blotting, single-plex, multiplex, or cell-based assays in many different formats.
Protein Expression & Purification
Enhance protein expression and stability. Develop affinity chromatography or classical methods of protein isolation. Use fusion tags, bioaffinity interactions, or immunoaffinity purifications.
Ligand Immobilization
Coupling of affinity molecules to solid phases to create affinity targeting or purification supports. Create array surfaces, microparticles, nanoparticles, and chromatography supports.
Antibody Production
Immunogen and vaccine production using the latest carriers and conjugation techniques. New strategies to produce immunogens to modulate allergen reactions. Decrease antibody response to the carrier or crosslinker and maximize response to the hapten.
Antibody Conjugation
Conjugation with antibodies or antibody fragments through selected sites. Prepare better biotinylated or fluorescently labeled antibodies having enhanced stability and S/N. Options for preparing ADC conjugates or enzyme conjugates using a variety of antibody scaffolds.
Site Directed Coupling
Conjugation of biomolecules through discrete sites and functional groups to avoid active centers or binding regions. Form reproducible bioconjugates with maximal activity. Large library of reactions and reagents are available to use.
