Simple, flexible, and cost‑efficient vaccine research and development

Accelerating the research and development of mRNA vaccines requires simple workflows with all inputs optimized for product needs. The demand for high-quality mRNA purification and synthesis must be met with flexible and scalable solutions. Invitrogen Dynabeads Streptavidin for In Vitro Transcription and Invitrogen Dynabeads Carboxylic Acid for RNA Purification are specifically designed for optimal mRNA synthesis and purification.

Dynabeads magnetic beads for mRNA vaccine research and development offer:

  • Reusability—reuse the DNA template up to six times, minimizing plasmid prep and reducing hands-on time and risk of transfer of bacterial host DNA
  • Automation—enable high‑throughput synthesis and purification of many samples simultaneously
  • Flexibility—choice of synthetic or plasmid DNA template to enable mRNA IVT for greater flexibility of mRNA design


Dynabeads Streptavidin for In Vitro Transcription

An innovative solution facilitating the reuse of DNA template, minimizing the effort needed for plasmid preparation whilst maximizing the mRNA productivity in scale ranging from µg to g quantities of mRNA.

RNA is synthesized using a biotinylated DNA template of choice, amplified through PCR, immobilized to Dynabeads Streptavidin for In Vitro Transcription. The immobilized template can be reused in the next IVT reaction (at least six times).

Cell culture volumes will be approximately 10,000 times smaller than traditional In Vitro Transcription (IVT) workflows. The highly efficient Dynabeads IVT process delivers exceptional quality mRNA in scalable quantities that can flex quickly and easily according to your needs.
