Start with an initial project discussion. Feasibility, screening, development or testing is quoted as paid work; scope, deliverables and sample arrangements are agreed before the project starts.
Plan the next step ↗- Describe your application.
Enzyme identity, current assay or unit definition, sample matrix, number of samples, storage conditions and required reporting format.
- Agree the trial conditions.
Include the material, scale, pH, temperature, contact time and any existing process chemicals.
- Define a useful result.
Choose the comparison, controls and measurements that will guide your next decision.
BEFORE YOU START
The details
that matter.
Can results from different unit systems be compared directly?
Only when the substrate, method and reaction conditions are compatible. Share both methods before treating differently defined units as interchangeable.
Are all assays available immediately?
Methods and suitability are confirmed after reviewing your request. Any required method development is scoped and quoted before work starts.
Is this an accredited testing service?
No accreditation claim is made on this site. If your project requires a specific accreditation or standard method, state it before the work is scoped.
What is the turnaround time?
Sample requirements, method availability and turnaround are confirmed in the project quotation. Please include your required deadline.
Do you offer bulk supply and tailored blends?
Send your application, required quantity, specifications and delivery destination. We will review a suitable supply or development route and provide a quotation.
