Peptide Synthesis - Automated Parallel Peptide Synthesis

CEM Corporation is market leader in Automated Parallel Peptide Synthesis / Automated Microwave Peptide Synthesis and supply worldwide customers with the most advanced and simple to use instrumentation.

In organic chemistry, peptide synthesis is the production of peptides, compounds where multiple 

amino acids are linked via amide bonds, also known as peptide bonds. Peptides are chemically synthesized by the condensation reaction of the carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of another. 

Chemical synthesis facilitates the production of peptides which are difficult to express in bacteria, the incorporation of unnatural amino acids, peptide/protein backbone modification, and the synthesis of D-proteins, which consist of D-amino acids.
