Plasmid Preparation Services

Introduction

Porton Advanced has developed plasmid DNA preparation services, designed to provide rapid and cost-efficient delivery of high-quality DNAs. Our plasmid preparation services cover a broad spectrum, accommodating both scientific researchers and industrial clients, with quantities ranging from micrograms to grams. Our offerings not only to research-oriented projects but also extend to manufacturing GMP-like and GMP-grade plasmid DNAs suitable for preclinical and clinical applications. With a commitment to excellence, we are proud to meet the diverse needs of our customers in the academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical communities.

Quality Control (QC)

Our comprehensive quality control (QC) for plasmid DNAs includes DNA quantification, A260/280 and A260/230 measurements, restriction enzyme digestion, Sanger sequencing. For Maxiprep and above, our plasmid preparation services can achieve higher supercoiled content (90% ± 10%) with lower endotoxin levels (<0.01 EU/μg). Additionally, we offer animal-free plasmid preparation upon request.

Deliverables

  • Plasmid DNAs
  • Certificate of Analysis (CoA)

Storage Condition

Our plasmid DNAs can be formulated in either 1 × TE buffer or ultra-purified HO. Formulated plasmid DNAs can be stored at -80°C for a period of 12-24 months without compromising plasmid DNA quality.
