Cell culture

Cell culture is a fundamental aspect of cell biology, enabling life science researchers to grow cells under controlled conditions. To accurately mimic and manipulate the natural environment, and to extract biomolecules for further analysis in genomics, proteomics, and other fields, a diverse array of chemicals and reagents is required.

Protein biology

Proteins are essential macromolecules that drive numerous biological processes, from catalyzing metabolic reactions to providing structural support in cells. The study of protein biology is deeply intertwined with the chemical tools and reagents used to analyze and manipulate these complex molecules.

Molecular biology

Molecular biology is a field that explores the molecular underpinnings of life, focusing on the interactions between various cellular systems such as DNA, RNA, and proteins. The success of molecular biology research heavily relies on the quality and reliability of the chemicals and reagents used.
