Qkine Ltd
We manufacture high quality growth factors and cytokines for stem cell, organoid and regenerative medicine applications.
Spun-out from the University of Cambridge in 2016, we use proprietary protein purification and engineering technology to make recombinant proteins in E.coli. Our proteins are properly folded, free from contaminating related TGF beta family proteins (unfortunately often present in mammalian protein expression systems) and we include full QC data for every batch – mass spec, analytical reverse phase, recovery, SDS-PAGE, bioassay data and endotoxin testing.
