A USEFUL FIRST STEP
Start with a brief.
Build the evidence.
Start with an initial project discussion. Feasibility, screening, development or testing is quoted as paid work; scope, deliverables and sample arrangements are agreed before the project starts.
Plan the next step ↗- Describe your application.
Substrate and target product structures, reaction type, solvent, concentration, analytical method and target scale.
- Agree the trial conditions.
Include the material, scale, pH, temperature, contact time and any existing process chemicals.
- Define a useful result.
Choose the comparison, controls and measurements that will guide your next decision.
BEFORE YOU START
The details
that matter.
Do all enzymes work without cofactors?
No. Requirements depend on the selected activity. Include cofactor restrictions in the initial brief.
Can you guarantee a synthesis route will work?
A feasibility and screening programme establishes whether candidates are suitable; success is not guaranteed before the experiments.
Do you offer finished chemical products here?
This site is for project and enzyme-supply enquiries. Product identity, specifications and any development deliverables are agreed in the quotation.
Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?
Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
