02 · Our enzyme range

A starting point for your next process.

Our initial range includes the enzyme families below. Most are available by enquiry rather than as stocked catalogue products. Tell us what you need to achieve so we can discuss the relevant preparation, sample availability and production options.

Enzyme family 01

Transaminases

Discuss transaminase candidates for your biocatalysis project, with evaluation centred on your target reaction and process requirements.

Enquire about transaminases
Enzyme family 02

Lipases

Explore our in-house lipase offering for application testing and made-to-order supply. We will discuss the preparation appropriate to your project.

Enzyme family 06

Glucose Transferases

Discuss glucose transferase candidates for your research or process development, including evaluation requirements and made-to-order supply.

Enquire about glucose transferases

Enzyme specifications, available quantities, lead times and suitability for the intended use are confirmed individually. Evaluation availability does not imply immediate stock or suitability for every application.

03 · From first discussion to supply

Start small. Build on the results.

A practical route for businesses and research teams exploring a new enzyme, improving an existing process or developing a new application.

  1. Define the application

    Share your target reaction or process, operating conditions, success criteria and timescale.

  2. Evaluate an enzyme

    Agree a suitable candidate and sample quantity. Free evaluation samples may be available for selected projects.

  3. Review performance

    Discuss your trial results, technical requirements and whether further evaluation or production is appropriate.

  4. Agree supply

    For promising projects, agree specifications, quantities, pricing and lead times, with supply contracts where appropriate.

Considering enzyme immobilisation?

Discuss whether an immobilised enzyme format could suit your process, and explore our dedicated immobilisation offering.

04 · Start a conversation

What would you like your enzyme to do?

Tell us a little about your project. You do not need a complete specification to start the conversation.

  • Request an evaluation sample
  • Discuss a made-to-order enzyme
  • Explore ongoing production and supply
  • Ask about immobilisation or a research project

Sample requests are reviewed for project fit and availability. Quantities and any charges are confirmed before dispatch.

05 · Useful to know

Before you begin.

Can I buy these enzymes directly online?

Most enzymes in this range are initially offered by enquiry and made to order. Contact us to confirm availability, specifications, quantity and lead time. For our wider stocked range, browse the enzyme catalogue.

Are evaluation samples free?

Free evaluation samples may be available for selected projects, subject to suitability and availability. We will confirm the preparation, quantity and any charges before dispatch.

What information should I provide?

Start with the outcome you need. If available, include the substrate or target reaction, operating pH and temperature, solvent system, test method, required quantity and timescale.

Can you support longer-term supply?

For promising applications, we can discuss made-to-order production and an ongoing supply agreement. Specifications, capacity, pricing and delivery schedules are agreed for each project.

Can I enquire about an enzyme that is not listed?

Yes. Send us your requirements and we will review whether it could fit our current production offering or a potential development project.
