Lab Chemicals

Building blocks for organic synthesis

Chemical synthesis reagents are essential to transform building blocks into target molecules quickly, safely, and cleanly. The Thermo Scientific portfolio includes over 5,000 organic synthesis reagents, including reducing and oxidizing reagents, organometallics, commonly used functional reagents, and specialty reagents for specific reactions.

Chemicals for clean energy research

In the rapidly evolving world of clean energy, our chemicals portfolio supports the discovery and development of technologies making them safer, more energy efficient, more environmentally friendly, and less dependent on hard-to-procure metals.

Small-molecule drug discovery

Discover a faster, more efficient path to success with the comprehensive portfolio for small molecule drug discovery from Thermo Fisher Scientific. From bioactive molecules and diverse screening libraries to monomers, chemical probes, and custom solutions—we support every step from hit identification to lead optimization. Partner with us to simplify your discovery process and boost reproducibility. 

Small-molecule target validation

Thermo Scientific chemical probes are selective small-molecule modulators of a protein’s function, designed to allow researchers to ask mechanistic and phenotypic questions about their molecular target in cell-based or animal research studies. These compounds help reduce the technical and biological risks of pursuing a pathway or target before incurring the time and expense of drug development and clinical trials.

Protecting from PFAS

PFAS (Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances), also known as the forever chemicals, are ubiquitous and persistent synthetic chemicals. Due to their chemical properties, PFAS are widely used in numerous household and industrial products. As PFAS can be toxic, there is an increasingly need to test for the presence of these compounds. Analyzing PFAS can be challenging due to the low levels of detection and the need for chemicals and consumables that are suitable for PFAS testing.

Oligonucleotide synthesis—chemical essentials

For customers involved in oligonucleotide synthesis we offer custom chemicals specifically designed for your synthesis. These chemicals include extra-dry solvents, deblocking agents, CAP A, CAP B, activators, and oxidizers.

We understand that every oligo customer is different, and that’s why our chemicals and chemical blends are formulated to your precise concentrations and tailored to meet your exact specifications.

Peptide synthesis—chemical essentials

Our chemical essentials product line for peptide synthesis includes a comprehensive range of high-quality reagents and solvents designed to support efficient and reliable peptide synthesis. We offer a variety of, coupling and deprotection reagents, cleavage agents and solvents and solvent mixtures (both standard and greener alternatives).

Our catalog to production scale chemical offerings, cater for both research and commercial scale peptide production needs.
