BioTools, Inc. is the world’s leading provider of instrumentation and services for characterization of all therapeutic modalities from small chiral molecules to bio-based.

For chiral molecules we specialize in determination of absolute configuration (AC) with our ground-breaking technique of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD). VCD analysis is performed in solution; it is fast, non-destructive and requires no crystallization or chromophore derivatization for AC.
We can also characterize chirality using the electronic CD.

For biologics (including peptides, proteins and conjugates) and other bio-based pharmaceuticals such as Saccharide-derived, nucleic acid-based (mRNA, DNA, siRNA, AAV), complex drugs, and conjugates, we use Raman, Raman Optical Activity (ROA), FTIR and CD for Higher Order Structure (HOS) and comparability studies.

Other molecules tested include cryopreservation media, cell culture media, protein-based food, supplements;
