Cambio, the Cambridge, UK-based supplier of world-class molecular biology reagents and consumables, has added the SMOBIO Technology range to its impressive portfolio.

SMOBIO tools optimise research in molecular biology and protein science by providing high quality protein markers, DNA ladders, and cloning reagents. These innovative products enjoy fantastic feedback from researchers across both industry and academia.

SMOBIO enjoys an impressive market share, manufacturing for customers under OEM (original equipment manufacturer) agreements. Their growing reputation for high quality tools, generated by more than satisfied customers has served as one of the best marketing strategies around.

SMOBIO– Smart, Modern, Original – boasts a comprehensive range of high quality,

competitively-priced, ready-to-use prestained protein ladders in varying hues, coupled with an equally expansive range of DNA ladders, premixed with loading dyes or fluorescent stains to suit a range of research requirements, under the ExcelBand trademark.

Alongside this comes a wide range of PCR, RT-PCR, and Q-PCR reagents to suit a host of applications – whether you need to improve fidelity, yield or processivity, tolerate high temperatures, vary the concentration of Mg²⁺, or cope with difficult sources such as blood samples.

Scientists and engineers at SMOBIO recently developed the B-BOX™ Blue Light LED epi-illuminator. This highly sensitive LED epi-illuminator avoids the use of dangerous UV facilities and toxic/carcinogenic ethidium bromide dye, providing an unprecedented level of safety for users. B-BOX can greatly ease the routine chore of gel extraction, enabling easy visualization and gel cutting even in bright ambient light. The multi-angle filter plate provides optimal angles for gel cutting, visualization, and documentation. Finally, a specially-designed barrier system built around the working area helps facilitate cleaning.

The B-BOX also provides unprecedented efficiency of cloning work, enhancing the success of PCR-cloning by up to 100-fold, as coupled with SMOBIO FluoroVue™ Nucleic Acid Gel Stain, an innovative in-gel fluorescent dye that stains both DNA and RNA with high sensitivity and safety. 

Cambio is delighted to offer these exciting, competitively priced products from SMOBIO alongside their expanding molecular biology product offering. Not sure they will work for you? Contact us for free samples of many of the reagents included in the range.
