Extracellular Vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, are small vesicles composed of a lipid bilayer which are secreted from various cells under physiological and pathological conditions, and which can be found in body fluids and cell culture supernatants. EVs contain functional molecules such as nucleic acids and proteins, and act as mediators of intercellular communication by entering the target cells. EVs are known to be involved in various diseases and physiological responses, thus research on them, including their potential therapeutic applications, has gained considerable momentum in recent years.

We offer ready-to-use reagents optimized for extracting exosomes from cell culture supernatants and serum. Isolated exosomes can be used in downstream applications such as ELISA.

Glycans are known to exist not only on the cell surface but also on the EV surface. We offer various glycan-related reagents that support EV research.
