ChromoTek produces the nanobodies with high-performance recombinant reagents. Combined with Proteintech, the companies will address growing opportunities in single-cell analysis, super-resolution imaging, and multiplex assays.

Proteintech has a large portfolio of self-manufactured antibodies covering two-thirds of the human proteome. The company also offers cytokines, growth factors, and other human-expressed proteins.
