Industrial biotechnology is transforming traditional manufacturing technologies, but several hurdles remain

This paper outlines the critical needs and complexities of industrial biotech R&D, and how Benchling has helped address these challenges for leading industrial biotech companies.
Read the Paper

Industrial Biotech Research

  • Manage wide range of biological components used with clearly described properties.

    • Design and develop engineered strains with molecular biology tools such as bulk assembly
    • Create a registry of all your strains and constructs with customizable data models and sequence-level intelligence
    • Link physical inventory of constructs to your registry entries

  • Design complicated workflows used for the construction of biological systems.

    • Create custom workflows to suit systems bio, synthetic bio, or evolutionary engineering applications
    • Flexibly edit workflows as engineering strategies change
    • Trace engineering workflows, strains used, and the corresponding products generated

  • Characterize and model to support rational engineering.

    • Integrate genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and fluxomics results
    • Combine characterization results to improve in-silico modeling approaches
    • Track iterative improvement in strain function and substrate generation
