We are an approved Internal Service Organization (ISO) for providing peptide synthesis to University of Minnesota customers (with potential services to external commercial and academic customers, please email for negotiation). We offer competitive pricing compared to outside, commercial sources–our rates are based on recouping of overhead and instrument investment, reagent costs, and labor costs for running syntheses in batches of 1-12 peptides at a time, and do not include any profit margin or other markup. We offer a full-service “facility synthesis” rate, which includes labor costs, and a trained user “independent synthesis” rate, which does not include labor costs (other than the costs of initial training by our staff).
Protein Technologies SymphonyX Peptide Synthesizer

We are equipped with a Protein Technologies SymphonyX synthesizer, which has several key features to enable synthesis of “non-standard” peptides and peptidomimetics, such as those containing expensive amino acid monomers and labels (fluorophore and/or non-radioactive heavy isotopes), including 12 fully independent reaction vessels and “one-shot” delivery (i.e. no priming required) for expensive monomer addition or unusual chemistry requirements. Our lab can synthesize labeled and unlabeled peptides for customers or provide training to advanced users who expect to explore research questions through peptide synthesis.
