Many of our established products are of interest to biology and health care researchers, especially those handling mammalian cells in culture, and to diagnostic and pathology laboratories. We manufacture a number of unique products, such as a low PDGF serum (Plasma Derived Bovine Serum) for placental and blood brain barrier investigations, a Collagen type I solution for making three-dimensional gels containing mammalian cells, and ECGS for investigating neovascularisation, amongst many others.
We also offer a custom manufacturing service to other companies in the diagnostics and biochemical sectors, either to produce intermediate reagents or finished branded products. Please feel free to consider this product list as a jumping off point to using our contract manufacturing service: the product list represents a fragment of our output, and we are enthusiastic and experienced in the preparation of customer-defined materials to clear deadlines.
Our scope includes:
- Sourcing of raw materials from farmed, laboratory and exotic species, from defined international animal and plant health status origins and from highly defined human donors
- Culture of non-pathogenic source organisms
- Custom dissection and maceration
- Extensive low temperature storage from -85°C, -20°C to +4°C
- Centrifugation, both batch and continuous
- Liquid Chromatography e.g. up to 90lt Ion Exchange
- Diafiltration and dialysis
- Preparative electrophoresis
- Solvent extraction, and precipitation
- Lyophilisation and vial closure under modified atmosphere
- Weighing to 5 decimal places
- Aseptic terminal filtration
- Customer defined packaging
- Wide range of quality control procedures
- Documentation to suit your own in-house practices
And most importantly, you will interact with the biochemist and biologist working for you, allowing direct communication.
