Lipid nanoparticle research tool guide

LNP banner

For over four decades, Cayman Chemical have been providing the scientific community with top-quality lipids, backed by their unparalleled proficiency in lipid chemistry, synthesis, and purification, all supported by cutting-edge analytical tools. Cambridge Bioscience are proud to supply Cayman Chemical's remarkable selection of pre-prepared lipids for LNPs and research-ready LNPs, facilitating the screening of diverse LNP compositions.

However, with such a range of different LNP research tools on offer, it can be difficult to know which one is perfect for your own specific research needs - which is why we've made this guide for you.

LipidLaunch™ research tools streamline LNP investigation by offering convenient, cost-effective solutions for researchers at every stage of their projects. These research-ready LNPs and reagent kits employ lipid compositions of wide interest, including those employed in mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines. With a range of formats, they provide researchers with choices for cargo selection and LNP formulation.

Crafted with researcher convenience in focus, LipidLaunch™ research tools minimise hands-on time and expertise required. Preloaded and loadable LNPs remove the necessity for costly and intricate mixing procedures, ensuring simplicity of use. The Exploration and Uptake Kits enable LNP preparation through straightforward hand mixing techniques or, if accessible, microfluidic mixers.

The LipidLaunch range enables easy discoveries
