Custom peptide synthesis
Are you looking for specific peptide sequences, not yet commercially available?
We can offer you difficult peptide synthesis such as synthesis of long peptides ( up to 80-mers), peptides containing unusual modifications, and cyclic peptides with flexible scale GLP or GMP synthesis (up to 1 kg).
- Methologies: Optimized Fmoc and Boc methodologies are employed for peptide synthesis. Cleavage of peptides is performed using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), hydrogen fluoride (HF), or other appropriate methods.
- Total quality management: Peptides are produced in accordance to GMP/GLP and ISO guidelines. Whereas most of peptides are checked for quality at the final stage (QC), peptides produced by AnaSpec are checked for quality after each stage of the production process (see Figure 1).
- Purification: 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. For purity requirements of >95%, AnaSpec runs its HPLC analyses at a gradient of 0-60% over 45 mins. Like a close-up photograph, this insures that peptide validation reveals even the smallest of impurities (see Figure 2).
- Equipment: state-of-the-art automated peptide synthesizers capable of performing syntheses ranging from small (0.025 mmol) to large (50 mmol) scale. These state-of-the-art synthesizers, coupled with experienced peptide chemists, enable us to deliver your peptides quickly and in high quality (purity of 90-95% is typical).
- Delivery: Most custom orders can be expected to be delivered in two to four weeks.
Be 100% confident of your peptides!
Though AnaSpec's TQM System can be viewed as being "too comprehensive" and does incur higher cost, we believe the cost saving (in research time and efforts) from experiments done successfully with high-quality peptides far exceed the cost saving from purchasing lower quality peptides. TQM System reflects AnaSpec total commitment to quality and the success of your work. Analytical data of a high-quality difficult, long peptide (67-mer) produced under the AnaSpec TQM System are shown in Figure 3 & 4.
