Technical Route

Our technical method route is a meticulously designed process that ensures the production of high-quality enzymes. It consists of the following steps:

  1. Initial Enzyme Model Design: This is the first step where we create a preliminary model of the enzyme, considering its structure and functionality.
  2. Computational Simulation: In this step, we run the created model through a series of computational simulations to check its feasibility and potential performance.
  3. Enzyme Modification: Based on the results obtained from the simulation, we modify the enzyme to enhance its performance and adapt it to specific tasks.
  4. Experimental Validation: The modified enzyme is then subjected to a series of rigorous experimental tests for validation.

Service Process

Our service process is designed to ensure maximum customer satisfaction. It is broken down as follows:

  1. Project Consultation and Quotation: We begin by discussing your project requirements and providing a detailed quotation.
