Phoreus Biotech is a bioscience disruptor with patented nanocarrier technology that can revolutionize gene editing, gene therapy, biopesticides, and insect research. They offer the revolutionary new BAPtofect-25™ transfection reagent kit that provides significant advantages for insect transfection over existing products. Comprised of branched amphipathic peptide capsules (BAPC™), an entirely new class of nanocarrier, the kit overcomes many of the common transfection issues associated with lipid and polymer-based products. BAPtofect-25 is non-toxic to insects and has been verified safe for honeybees by an EPA-method toxicology study. It's capable of binding with proteins, dsRNA, oligonucleotides, plasmids and CRISPR-Cas9 and allows for oral delivery. The peptides are water soluble and extremely stable in high temperatures. Transfecting with BAPtofect-25 yields improved efficacy and accuracy in your experiments.
