Vector® Laboratories – SoluLINK® Bioconjugation Reagents
SoluLINK® bioconjugation technology has been engineered to allow rapid and quantifiable conjugation of all classes of biomolecules. Unlike other conjugation chemistries, the linkers are chromophoric, meaning that they absorb light and can therefore be easily quantified with a simple spectrophotometer reading.
- Reactions are up to 100 times faster than other
bioconjugation technologies
- Chromophoric linkers for easy quantification
- Most kits require less than 100 µg of antibodies for an efficient conjugation

Hycult Biotech – Complement and Thromboinflammation in SARS-CoV-2
When our adaptive immune system fails or responds too slow in pandemics, we need to be able to rely on our host defense and innate immune system. It has not only become more relevant for now, but also for future infections. As within the current SARS-CoV-2 / COVID-19 pandemic it is evident that the innate immune system has a pivotal role in relation to the inflammatory storm in SARS-CoV-2 infected patients. Hyper activation is contributing to lung damage, as well as microvascular injury of the thromboinflammation pathway is observed.
