Animal-Free Recombinant Protein Expression Service
Your Solution for Animal-Component Free Protein Production

Our state-of-the-art, animal-free recombinant protein expression service is designed to meet the needs of customers who require the expression and purification of recombinant proteins without the use of animal-derived substances. The animal-free protein production service is available in all the expression systems we offer (E.coli, insect cells, yeast and mammalian cells).

Recombinant protein expression of your target takes place in a controlled environment that is completely free of animal-derived components. Our optimized growth conditions and expression protocols ensure high-level production of soluble and functional protein. Following expression, the recombinant protein can undergo a series of purification steps. Our purification services are flexible and can be tailored to meet the specific purity requirements of your application. Each method is carefully selected and optimized to achieve the highest purity and activity of your protein.

Choose our service for a reliable, high-quality supply of recombinant proteins that aligns with the ethical, scientific and regulatory standards of your work. Contact us to discuss how we can assist you in achieving your protein production goals.

Planning Phase

After receiving your inquiry, one of our scientific sales and application managers will contact you within one business day to review your individual project needs. A consultation by email, video conference, or telephone will be followed shortly by a quote. The project can start within one day after placing the order.

 

Plasmid Generation

Generation of Expression Constructs: Your target sequence(s) is cloned into the expression system/vector(s) based on what we agreed on together during the offer process. We obtain plasmid DNA containing the codon optimized DNA of the POI from client or gene synthesis of codon optimized DNA (add-on).

 

Small Scale Pilot Study

Prior to full-scale production, we validate the soluble expression of the target protein in E. coli and test the feasibility of successful purification. For further information on what this includes, please refer to the FAQs.

 

Protein Expression

The protein is expressed in shake flask culture using trenzyme´s specially composed animal component free medium. For larger scales, fed-batch fermentation in the bioreactor is also possible.

 

Protein Purification

Based on the results of the previous pilot study, the target protein is using a one-step or multistep process. Afterwards, the buffer will be exchanged into standard buffer or the buffer defined by the customer. The complete amount of target protein that was successfully purified during the course of the production run will be made available to the client.

 

Final Quality Check & Further Analytics

Before you receive your target protein, a final quality check will be performed. This includes:

  • Standard final Quality Check comprises analysis by SDS-Page and assessment of final concentration and purity
  • Compilation of documentation of the full production process
  • Additional analytical methods as requested by the client, please refer to the FAQs to see the possible analyses.

 

Shipment of Your Protein

  • Priority courier service across all global markets
  • Reliable delivery ensuring optimal preservation of your protein
  • Network of trusted logistics specialists at your service
  • Complete shipment visibility through real-time tracking technology

For more information, please refer to our FAQs.

 

Deliverables & Timeline

Timeline: The duration of the process largely depends on the specific cell line, its doubling rate, and the nutrient composition of the target medium (low or high nutrient content). As a result, the adaptation typically takes between 6 and 12 weeks.

Deliverables: Together with the purified target protein, you will receive a complete set of documentation.

For more information about the documentation, see our FAQs.

FAQs for Animal-Free Protein Expression and Purification Service

Which expression system do you use for animal-free protein production?

We offer animal-free protein production for all expression systems ranging from E.coli and yeast to insect and mammalian cells

Do you offer specific documentation and certificates for animal-free production?

Depending on your needs we can offer an in-depth documentation containing all materials used with lot-specific certificates and detailed lot reports.
A final quality certificate can be issued according to your needs.

Which quantities can you provide produced under animal-free conditions?

We are able to produce and purify proteins from the mg scale up to g scale under animal-component free conditions.

Can you offer proteins being sterile?

Yes, we can finally sterilize the protein by sterile filtration and confirm the sterility by a sterility assay according regulatory requirements.
