Cloning—$1,000.00 Recombinant protein purification from E. coli—$800.00 per 6 L of culture Recombinant protein purification from other expression systems—inquire Custom project—inquire Fermentation charges Fermentation runs include up to 60 hours of fermentation time including set up and cleaning of the tanks. Harvesting of cells is included in the fee. If longer fermentation times are required, additional per day costs will be added. Additional charges may also be incurred for processes that require oxygen supplementation, feeding, etc. 5L working volume—$25 per run, $10 per additional day 20L working volume—$50 per run, $20 per additional day 100L working volume—$100 per run, $30 per additional day 200L working volume:—$120 per run, $30 per additional day 400L/500L working volume—$150 per run, $40 per additional day We can provide chemicals if required. These will be charged to you at cost. Alternatively you may supply your own chemicals.
