Protein Expression and Purification

MCLAB is equipped with up to 250L fermenters, cell lysis devices, centrifuges, ultra-filtration, FPLC, and HPLC. Our scientists have years of experiences in the lab as well as with industrial process development.

What Can We Help?

• We can help you select expression system and strains, develop standard protocols, and scale up processes.
• We can also help you solve the challenging problems in the areas of protein solubility, expression levels, refolding, biological activity maintenance, endotoxin level reduction, crystallization, etc.

Service Details

1. Protein Expression in E. coli

• Single batch and feed batch, high cell density fermentation
• Inclusion body isolation and protein refolding
• Soluble protein purification in high yield

2. Expression in Yeast
