Amerigo Scientific Launches Cost-Effective GalNAc (TEG)-CPG Reagent to Empower Nucleic Acid Therapeutics

Amerigo Scientific Launches Cost-Effective GalNAc (TEG)-CPG Reagent to Empower Nucleic Acid Therapeutics

Date : 2023-06-28

Amerigo Scientific, a distributor focused on providing critical products and services to biomedical and life science communities, recently announced the launch of its cost-effective GalNAc (TEG)-CPG reagent to empower the development of nucleic acid therapeutics. This reagent is used to synthesize oligonucleotide-GalNAc conjugates. 

Asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) is the ideal target for the delivery of therapeutic oligonucleotides to the liver due to its tissue specificity, high expression levels, rapid internalization, and turnoverN-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) is a well-defined liver-targeted moiety benefiting from its high affinity with ASGPR. By conjugating it directly to the oligonucleotides or decorating it to a certain delivery system as a targeting moiety, GalNAc has achieved compelling success in the development of nucleic acid therapeutics.

Oligonucleotides containing GalNAc can be deprotected using standard procedures during which the acetyl-protecting groups on the GalNAc group are removed. Much experimental work has shown that GalNAc CPG is fully compatible with the synthesis of the siRNA-GalNAc conjugateAnd the use of oligonucleotide glycoconjugates has led to significant advances in therapeutic delivery as evidenced by the work of researchers using the GalNAc (TEG)-CPG reagents.

Amerigo Scientific’s GalNAc (TEG)-CPG can be supplied with pore sizes of 500 Ã… and 1000 Ã…. Due to space reasons, the pore size of 1000 Ã… is suitable for the synthesis of oligonucleotide-GalNAc conjugates with long oligonucleotides, while the pore size of 500 Ã… is suitable for the synthesis of oligonucleotide-GalNAc conjugates with short oligonucleotides. Depending on the desired oligonucleotide sequence length of clients, different pore sizes are available to facilitate the synthesis and development of oligonucleotide drugs. More important, Amerigo Scientific assures its customers of the high-quality of products as well as competitive prices for a wide range of widespread reagents.

Other reagents for GalNAc conjugate technology are available under request. Additionally, Amerigo Scientific offers a collection of building blocks, modified nucleoside derivatives, intermediates and other reagents that meet the oligo synthesis or nucleic acids synthesis needs.

Amerigo Scientific, a distributor focused on providing critical products and services to biomedical and life science communities, recently cooperates with Life Science Group to distribute the Viral Transport Medium CDC Protocol. This item is designed to aid researchers in their efforts to study the latest virus strains and improve their understanding of the physiology and life cycle of viruses.

 

“We are excited to collaborate with Life Science Group to distribute the Viral Transport Medium CDC Protocol. Our partnership could be a major step forward to providing high-quality research tools for the life sciences for both of us,\" said a spokesperson for Amerigo Scientific. \"We are confident that our products will help advance viral research and testing by ensuring the safe and reliable transport of important samples. We look forward to continuing our mission of innovation and excellence in scientific research.”

 

Viral Transport Medium (VTM) CDC Protocol is used to collect and transport clinical specimens suspected of containing viruses, such as coronaviruses, influenza viruses, and other respiratory viruses. The protocol involves using a specialized medium to preserve and protect the virus in the specimen during transport to the laboratory for further testing and analysis. This helps to ensure that the virus remains viable and can be accurately identified and studied by laboratory personnel. The CDC protocol specifies the exact procedures and materials to use to ensure the highest level of accuracy and safety in handling these potentially dangerous specimens.

 

Amerigo Scientific’s Viral Transport Medium is designed to maintain the structural and functional integrity of viruses during storage and transport, allowing researchers to obtain high-quality, reliable data from samples collected in the field. It has been validated to work with a range of viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza, and other respiratory viruses. The resulting solution is a highly stable, potent, and low-viscosity liquid that can transport viruses from the site of collection to the laboratory.

Hydrazide Gel Kit for High-Yield Protein Purification

Hydrazide Gel Kit for High-Yield Protein Purification

Date : 2023-11-27

Amerigo Scientific, a distributor focused on providing critical products and services to biomedical and life science communities, is delighted to announce the launch of its featured product, the Hydrazide Gel Kit for high-yield protein purification. This innovative kit is set to revolutionize the field of protein purification by offering excellent performance, efficiency, and reliability.

 

Hydrazide Gel is an efficient glycoprotein binding medium that can bind oxidized sugar molecules on antibody glycans without interacting with amino acids. This important functionality gives it specificity for immunoglobulins with glycans that are conspicuously distanced from the hypervariable binding regions. By using acyl hydrazide gel, antibodies can be connected to solid-phase carriers through oxidized sugar moieties, thus maintaining the integrity of the antibodies, which other conjugation methods cannot guarantee. This method involves the oxidation of sugar molecules with periodic acid to convert adjacent hydroxyl groups into aldehydes (-CHO), which are then bound to hydrazide agarose.

 

Amerigo Scientific’s Hydrazide Gel Kit addresses the constant need for efficient protein purification solutions that ensure high yields and exceptional purity levels. Guaranteed by Amerigo Scientific’s team of scientists, this kit harnesses the power of hydrazide chemistry to ensure optimal results compared to traditional purification methods, which results in a faster and more streamlined purification process, allowing researchers to save valuable time and resources.

 

The Marketing Manager at Amerigo Scientific expressed enthusiasm about the featured product: “The Hydrazide Gel Kit represents a significant advancement in protein purification technology. We are excited to offer researchers a solution that enhances their ability to obtain pure and high-yield protein samples effortlessly. This breakthrough will undoubtedly expedite critical research in various fields, including pharmaceutical development and biotech applications.”

 

Furthermore, Amerigo Scientific also offers other protein purification products including various reagents, columns, and related products designed for efficient protein purification. With customer satisfaction in mind, Amerigo Scientific always delivers optimal solutions for clients to propel their research.
