Find in our new brochure Diamines & Polyamines our possibilities for custom synthesis and a set over 100 available derivatives.

Cfm Oskar Tropitzsch and Iris Biotech GmbH attended the China Hi-Tech-Fair (Nov 16-21, 2013) in Shenzhen. The Bavarian companies presented the latest stage of the art products in the field of peptides, life sciences research and drug discovery.

Aryl azides are well-known precursors of nitrenes and have been introduced by Fleet  et al . as versatile photoaffinity labeling agents to probe biological receptors.

The azido function can be used for different applications

A prominent luciferase group was first discovered in Coelenterata and the corresponding light emitting molecule was therefore named coelenterazine.

The overall goal of our research is to capitalize on peptides of natural origin and their biological activity and chemistry.

July 04th-06th, 2012 Poitiers, France This major international symposium will gather more than 450 scientists from around the world at the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy in Poitiers. The scientific programme, which will include over 25 plenary lectures by internationally well-known scientists, focuses on "Interfacing Chemical Biology and Drug Discovery", covering the main stages of modern drug discovery.

Our portfolio currently contains over 5500 products. Many of them – in particular standard consumables for peptide synthesis – are being produced in bulk quantities.  Therefore we can keep our prices also for lab quantities at very competitive level. In case of need for bulk quantities please inquire: - All 20 Proteinogenic  Fmoc-protected Amino Acids  are available in 100+ kg Lots;

Cleland's reagent, also known as dithiothreitol or DTT is a water soluble protective reagent for sulfhydryl groups. It reduces disulfide linkages to free sulfhydryl groups in proteins and enzymes. It is a component of buffers used in protocols for the isolation and purification of proteins. DTT (racemic), Cleland's Reagent

Dendrimers offer a new possibility to derivatize small molecules, surfaces or biopharmaceuticals with a monodisperse macromolecule and alter in this way properties like solubility and hydrophilicity. Immunogenicity and pharmacokinetics of pharmaceuticals will be improved. The synthetic approach for designing these dendrons of different generations is based on 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl) propionic acid, which is a non-toxic and biocompatible building block. The size can be designed from 250 g/mole for 1st gene...

Ulf Hanefeld, Lucia Gardossi and Edmond Magner Chem. Soc. Rev. 2009; 38 :453–468; https://doi.org/10.1039/b711564b   Abstract:Enzymes are versatile catalysts in the laboratory and on an industrial scale. To broaden their applicability in the laboratory and to ensure their (re)use in manufacturing the stability of enzymes can often require improvement. Immobilisation can address the issue of enzymatic instability. Immobilisation can also help to enable the employment of enzymes in differe...

Abstract: A considerable number of biologically active naturally occurring products are peptides, depsipeptides, and peptide conjugates.

Peptides are key to modern drug discovery. This article reviews the requirements for bulk production of peptides and how it affects research and production of smaller scales.
