Discovery

Integrated Discovery Platform
From Concept to IND

Reagent Materials Generation​


WuXi Biologics offers extensive research materials generation capabilities for immunization, bioassays, candidate screening and other biologics discovery and research applications.  Our services include the production of high-quality control antibodies, target proteins, antigens, and target/tool cell lines.  Additional R&D materials generation capabilities include reagent labelling, protein engineering, protein bioconjugation, target and tool cell line characterization, cell surface protein quantification, in-cell biotinylation, protein analytics and product or cell line stability assessment.

Soluble Antigen Design and Production​

Utilizing our extensive experience in soluble antigen design and production, we produce high-quality antigen and fusion protein materials as well as immunization plasmids for novel therapeutic antibody discovery programs.  Some examples include the production of challenging target proteins, such as GPCRs (G Protein-Coupled Receptors), ion channels, and cytokines.
