Effortless antimicrobial solution prep: Introducing ReadyMade™ Solutions

Let’s face it: Preparing antimicrobial stock solutions can be a pain. From sourcing the right product, finding the correct diluent, to weighing out powders, and filter-sterilizing... it all  takes time that you could be spending elsewhere.

     Our R&D team has developed a line of ReadyMade solutions for common antimicrobials used in the lab to streamline your workflows. We have a range of solutions that can be used in many different applications. Each solution has been stringently formulated, tested, and filter-sterilized using a 0.2 µm filter.

     Our product design team has researched ways we can make your life safer, and stretch your research budget.  Our solution-based format is safer for the researcher.  Our Production Manager, who knows all about keeping everyone safe in the lab, tells us that "using a prepared product that reduces exposure to potentially hazardous powders is beneficial".  She goes into say: "Instead of handling a concentrated powder, this product is diluted, prepared and filtered ahead of time.   A  product like this that consolidates multiple steps into one easy solution is desirable for many applications."   ReadyMade solutions come pre-sterilized, so you don't have to buy the lab filtration consumables (filtration units or syringes) which add cost and may be subject to supply chain delays.

     If you are screening compounds for potential utility against Coronavirus including SARS-CoV-2, we offer a range of ReadyMade solutions for COVID-19 research. Anisomycin may block the SARS-CoV-2 infection and block macrophage inflammation, and Bleomycin is used to study antifibrotic strategies. Co-trimoxazole is an anti-parasitic agent with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties and may ameliorate the cytokine storm syndrome associated with severe COVID-19 disease. Cyclosporin A is a natural oligopeptide that can inhibit coronavirus replication. Nisin is a natural antibacterial peptide that can interact with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2).

     Our selection of ReadyMade solutions are summarized below. We also welcome the opportunity to create customized ReadyMade solutions that meet your specifications.
