New SMALP Names

We are constantly innovating and searching for new solutions. Our product portfolio is getting more expanded.
In order to keep on offering a clear overview of our SMALP products we have rephrased the numbering system. The table below shows the changes that have been made.

Our recently introduced product, SMALP 502-E,  already fits the new naming scheme and will therefore remain the same.

New product Ultrasolute™ Amphipol 18 for direct solubilization of membrane proteins

We are happy to announce our latest product in collaboration with Cube Biotech: Ultrasolute™ Amphipol 18!

Based on innovative polymers developed by the Institute of Physical and Chemical Biology in Paris*, the new Ultrasolute™ Amphipol 18 shows increased solubilisation rates for a wide range of membrane proteins. This technology is of real value in biochemistry and pharmacology.

Why? Thanks to direct solubilisation of membrane proteins without the use of detergent, their extraction is simplified, with the advantage of not denaturing the protein.

These polymers allow solubilisation for a wide range of membrane proteins at a high efficiency, even at lower concentrations. Similar to other detergent-free polymers, like SMALPs, the membrane lipids associated with the membrane proteins are preserved in a nanodisc, providing stability and retaining the protein activity.

Ultrasolute Amphipol 18 is an efficient time-saving solution for biochemical scientists and pharmaceutical laboratories.

Stefan Scheidelaar guest speaker at the SMALP network conference

Stefan Scheidelaar, SMALP specialist at Orbiscope, presented at the SMALP network.
Stefan elaborated on the launch of our new polymer SMALP 1100I.

The SMALP network offers polymers, methods and meetings to support the growing community of scientists and companies interested in the preparation of membrane nanodiscs formed by polymers including styrene maleic acid for biological research and drug discovery applications.

During the conference, which took place on the 19th of June 2020, Stefan Scheidelaar represented the Orbiscope company and gave an introduction of SMALP 1100I.

SMALP 1100I is a positively charged copolymer which complements the existing SMALP reagents and is compatible with divalent cations and pH > 6.5.

For more information take a look at the presentation.
