C. elegans contract lab transgenic services

The challenge

Making transgenics in C. elegans requires specialist equipment, expertise and time. If you’re missing one or more of these elements, we can help you out.

The Magnitude Biosciences approach

We can generate C. elegans strains tailored to the exact needs of your project. Whether you have a well-established C. elegans programme in your own lab, or you want to include disease-relevant strains to one of our service assays, you can expect:

  • Speed - We are based in the UK, so depending on your location, you could have your extrachromosomal arrays back in a week.
  • Reliability - Building upon years of experience, we use state-of-the-art techniques and we validate our lines and edits.
  • Flexibility - Customised services and regular updates throughout your project -  we are always here to address your concerns.
  • IP ownership -  Our customers fully own the IP for the strains that we generate on their behalf.

Our transgenics process: Simple, efficient, reliable.

Step 1: Tell us about the experiments you wish to perform: Overexpression, fluorescent reporter, deletion, single point mutation or something else? We can provide a full consultation service to discuss the options available and together we can decide on the best solution for your needs.

Step 2: We generate your transgenic C. elegans lines: Extrachromosomal arrays, integrated lines or genome editing? The latest techniques will be used to generate and validate your lines.

Step 3: You receive your C. elegans lines: Your custom transgenic lines are ready for your experiments and we are still here to address any issues that may occur and to provide full support.

Biotech

Biotech professionals must progress their drug discovery R&D timelines fast in order to make the best use of their funding and IP. We help you take the jump from petri dish to mammal in vivo models with confidence and more quickly than going straight to rodent models.

Health and Manufacturing

Consumer goods, manufacturing and other industries investing in R&D want to put the best quality, eco-friendly products out on the market. However, testing your compounds for impact on environmental and human health can lead to overly complex, ethically challenging and time-consuming studies with animal models. C. elegans offer an ethical approach that can get the data you need on your compound in as little as three weeks.
