Birthday competition

Peptides&elephants is 22 years old!
These early months 22 years ago were hugely exciting! There were only two of us and we synthezised peptides in microtiter plates by hand – but we had a vision and took the first step to make it a reality: we designed and built a special pipette for our first peptide synthesis roboter.

 
When we completed our first peptide synthesis roboter in 2002, this is what the first prototype looked like: 

And that was just the beginning of our success story in robot development and peptide synthesis.

Our newest proprietary ultra sound peptide synthesis platform (USPS®) enables us to produce hundreds of peptides overnight!
