AdenoVirus Services:

Adenovirus vectors are arguably the most widely used gene deliver system. Welgen has been providing related services to researchers in academic institutes, pharmaceutical and biotech industrials for the past five years and have constructed, amplified, and purified thousands of adenovirus. Welgen’s service has enable researchers to save time and money in their works. Currently, Welgen is providing a complete line of services relating adenovirus vectors:

Lentivirus Services

 

Delivery of genes by lentiviral vectors has been well established and is currently widely used due to several advantages: Lentiviral vectors can accommodate long sequences; the vectors seem to be non-immunogenic due to the lack of viral coding sequences transfer; the vectors are able to transduce non-dividing cells; and the products can be stably expressed due to integration into the cell chromosome.
