NascaCell Technologies AG
BIOTECH DEVICES & REAGENTS
Keywords: Drug Development, Aptamer Technology, Peptide/Protein
NascaCell Technologies AG is a global leader in the automated production
and marketing of aptamers and Microbodies. Aptamers are small, functional
oligonucleotides binding to target proteins with very high affinities and
specificities. Because of their drug like binding characteristics, aptamers
typically show strong inhibition of protein function. NascaCell selects aptamers
in a rapid, automated procedure. This allows their generation in 8-10 weeks with
proven track record in target validation and drug discovery. Microbodies are
very small (ca 35 amino acids) and extremely stable proteins. Active peptides
can be grafted or new sequences identified with bacterial display.
Microbodies combine the selectivity of biologic agents with the ease of
handling and storage of small molecule drug compounds.
NeuroProfile GmbH
BIOTECH THERAPEUTICS & DIAGNOSTICS
NeuroProfile is committed to the discovery and development of novel therapeutics
for the treatment of Central Nervous System (CNS) diseases. The main
objective is the identification and commercialization of novel neuronal drug
targets (disease-related genes or proteins) for the most important neurodegenerative
diseases Alzheimer and Parkinson and for psychiatric disorders
such as schizophrenia and depression. Our targets will be the basics for forthcoming
drug generations with new mechanisms of action that not only
ameliorate the disease symptoms, but potentially prevent or block progression
of the disease.
Several patent pending target candidates are run in preclinical validation
projects.
NIGU Chemie GmbH
PHARMA & CHEMICAL INDUSTRY
Nigu offers a full range of high-purity guanidine salts for biotechnological
applications, which meet the supreme quality standards set by the biopharmaceutical
industry. The product group includes several grades of guanidine
hydrochloride for separation and purification of recombinant proteins and antibodies.
Guanidine thiocyanate for nucleic acid based diagnostics is another
integral part of the portfolio. A typical example is to provide guanidine-salts
and recycling of used solutions as a complete package to the biopharmaceutical
industry.
