Almac Group

 Enzyme Screening

Making Biocatalysts Available To You Through Our Platform Of Enzyme Panels

Our dedicated biocatalysis group provides an in- house enzyme screening facility using our selectAZyme^TM panels and subsequent identification of a suitably active and selective enzyme for your transformation.  In addition, the group can build enzyme panels for your transformation, through gene selection, gene synthesis and cloning followed by expression and delivery of enzyme for screening.

Typical Screening Projects Involve:

• High throughput screening development and implementation
• Assay development
• UPLC / HPLC method development and analysis
• Selection of the desired enzymes for your transformation
