Since our inception in 1993, AnaSpec has assisted scientists in the design
and synthesis of >50,000 peptides. As a result, our combined knowledge and
expertise provide premium solutions to our customers.
AnaSpec routinely completes difficult peptide synthesis such as synthesis of
long peptides (>90-mers), peptides containing unusual modifications, and
cyclic peptides. In addition, we have the capacity for large-scale synthesis
(>100 g).
Optimized Fmoc and Boc methodologies are employed for peptide syntheses.
Cleavage of peptides is performed using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), hydrogen
fluoride (HF), or other appropriate methods. Most of the peptides are purified
by HPLC using reverse phase C4 and C18 columns. Alternative purification methods
(e.g., ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography) are used when needed.
AnaSpec is equipped with state-of-the-art automated peptide synthesizers
capable of performing synthesis ranging from small (0.025 mmol) to large (50
mmol) scale. These state-of-the-art synthesizers, coupled with our experienced
peptide chemists, enable us to deliver our peptides quickly and in high quality
(purity of 90-95% is typical). Most custom orders can be expected to be
delivered in two to three weeks. Complete confidentiality of all orders is
assured.
AnaSpec’s
synthesis facilities located in Fremont, California means that
we are able to provide comprehensive oversight of the entire peptide synthesis
process. This ensures that we consistently meet our customer’s product
specifications. All custom peptides are accompanied with MS and HPLC analyses.
Additional analytical data (e.g., amino acid analysis, sequencing) are
available upon request. AnaSpec is also proud to be certified to ISO 9001:2008.
