We’ve said it enough times; the plaque-assay is the ‘gold standard’ for determining virus infectivity. But this doesn’t make the...

In our previous blog we talked about the early stages of growing insect cells when you might just have revived a frozen stock and set up...

A frequent customer query concerns baculovirus transfer vector plasmid compatibility with either flashBACTM or other systems for making...

While OET is currently unable to offer GMP manufacture of recombinant proteins or viruses, we can offer a premium service for pre-GMP...

A question that comes up from time to time is the use of co-infection with baculovirus vectors for multiple protein expression in insect...

A question we are asked from time to time is to identify baculovirus transfer vectors compatible with our flashBAC™ system. We obviously...

Variable expression of multi-component protein complexes is increasingly necessary as more sophisticated projects are attempted.  But how...

Between initial tests and larger scale up you may want to conduct intermediate scale recombinant protein production using baculovirus...

Oxford Expression Technologies are the experts when it comes to the science of baculovirus. For almost 10 years now we have specialised...

A question that often comes up from clients is what is the best signal peptide to use for baculovirus-expressed secreted recombinant...

There are many methods available for the titration of recombinant baculoviruses.  One of the most convenient is the use of the...

Sequence errors in your gene for expression Part II follows on from an earlier blog where we discussed a problem we were having producing...

If you don’t achieve the levels of protein expression expected in your project, have you ever considered that there may be sequence...

You may have had the experience!  An expression project is going really well.  You inserted your gene into a baculovirus vector...

We get asked to do many service projects for customers where they want to produce a modified form of a protein for structural/functional...

We told you last time about our trip to the Society for Invertebrate Pathology meeting in Tours, France.  This was another highly...

Using baculovirus expression vectors to produce virus-like particles (VLPs) is not new.  Intact, non-infectious poliovirus1 and...

We had promised to consider the production of virus like particles in this blog, but have postponed this topic to a later date after the...

After scaling up recombinant baculovirus-insect cell cultures (blog) we now come to what can be a very tricky part of the operation,...

Once you have decided on the optimal conditions for producing your recombinant protein target in baculovirus-infected insect cells, your...
