Avacta Life Sciences, the global provider of high quality reagents for life sciences, has launched a ground breaking new website for it’s Affimer technology.

Affimers are a new alternative to antibodies and aptamers. Based on a small protein scaffold, they can be engineered to bind with high specificity and affinity to a wide range of protein targets. Affimers can be used for a wide range of applications in diagnostics, drug / biomarker discovery, biotech research & development and in developing therapeutics.

To provide a world-class user experience for customers, Avacta’s new website has been responsively designed for optimised viewing on desktop, mobile and tablets. The sleek aesthetics draw on Avacta’s branding and ensures that the look and feel of the website reflect the high quality, cutting edge nature of Avacta’s Affimer products.

Michael Vinegrad, Head of Marketing at Avacta said: “We’re delighted to now be able to offer our catalogue reagents for sale via a vastly improved, secure ecommerce store. We’re also delighted that the website also functions as a shop window for Affimer technology and our 7 week custom Affimer service. The time taken to generate antibodies can be a considerable issue for life scientists. Our 7 week service could be a real game changer. “
