Research Vector


Manufacturing adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector represents a crucial first step in the development of many genetic medicines. This complex process involves designing, characterizing, and optimizing the plasmid(s), manufacturing the vector at an appropriate scale, and analyzing the vector product. Research-grade vectors play a vital role in numerous preclinical study applications, in both in vitro and in vivo paradigms.
