At CD BioSciences, we provide comprehensive virology services tailored to support the research and development of Human Herpesvirus (HHV)-related therapies and diagnostics. Our specialized services cater to the needs of pharmaceutical companies, research institutions, and biotechnology firms focused on HHV-related projects during the early research and preclinical phases. Leveraging our expertise in virology, we are committed to advancing the development of novel therapeutic solutions for HHV infections and associated diseases.
Virus Production & Titration
One of our core services is Virus Production & Titration, where we produce high-quality viral stocks to meet your research requirements. We offer the following services:
- High-Titer Virus Stock Production: We specialize in producing high-titer viral stocks that are essential for subsequent assays and experimental studies. Our expert team utilizes cutting-edge techniques to maximize viral yields and ensure consistent, reliable production.
- Viral Titer Assays (Plaque Assay & TCID50): To accurately assess the viral concentration of your samples, we offer a range of titer assays, including plaque assays and TCID50 assays. These methods provide essential data for optimizing experimental conditions and ensuring reproducibility in HHV-related studies.
Virus Purification & Characterization
Our Virus Purification & Characterization service focuses on isolating and characterizing viruses for in-depth research applications. This service includes:
- Purification of Viral Stocks: We ensure the highest purity levels by isolating viruses using advanced techniques like ultracentrifugation and chromatography.
- Characterization of Viral Properties: We perform a comprehensive analysis of viral stocks, including assessing stability, infectivity, and viral load. This data is crucial for both research and therapeutic development.
HHV Genome Sequencing
Our HHV Genome Sequencing service provides detailed insights into the genetic makeup of HHV strains. We offer full genome sequencing capabilities to support:
- Genome Mapping and Analysis: We utilize next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to generate high-quality genome maps, enabling a deeper understanding of viral evolution and variability.
- Mutation Tracking: Genome sequencing helps in tracking mutations within viral strains, supporting the identification of variants with enhanced infectivity or resistance to treatments.
Custom Virus Engineering
We specialize in Custom Virus Engineering to create tailored viral constructs that support your specific research objectives. Our services include:
- Gene Knockout/Knock-in: We offer gene knockout and knock-in services to modify viral genomes, allowing researchers to study gene functions and viral-host interactions. This is crucial for understanding viral pathogenesis and therapeutic targeting.
- Reporter Virus Construction: Our custom virus engineering services also include the construction of reporter viruses. These are engineered to include detectable markers, enabling real-time tracking of virus replication and spread in various experimental settings.
- Site-Directed Mutagenesis: We apply site-directed mutagenesis techniques to introduce specific mutations at desired locations in the viral genome. This service is invaluable for studying viral resistance mechanisms, host-virus interactions, and therapeutic targeting strategies.
