Milestones
2020
We have launched Nano-CaptureLigands for specific and site-directed capture of antibodies for SPR, BLI, and ELISA assays. Also V5-Trap for unparalleled immunoprecipitation of V5-tagged proteins was released. In October, ChromoTek became part of the Proteintech Group.
2019
ChromoTek launches Nano-Secondaries®: monoclonal recombinant Nanobodies to bind with high specificity and affinity to rabbit and mouse primary antibodies in a subtype specific manner.
2018
ChromoTek launches the Spot-capture and detection system for universal applications: This is the first peptide-tag and Nanobody used in super resolution microscopy. The inert Spot-Tag® and Nanobody can also applied in immunoprecipitation, purification, Western blotting and immunofluorescence.
2016
Highest number of literature references establishes GFP-Trap® as the gold standard for immunoprecipitation of GFP-fusion proteins and their interacting partners.
2014
- ChromoTek opens a subsidiary on East Coast to strengthens its customers’ support in the US.
- ChromoTek’s Fluorescent 2-Hybrid (F2H®) technology enables screening and validation of compounds in living cells.
2013
- ChromoTek licenses Chromobody® technology for high content drug profiling to Bayer
- ChromoTek introduces Chromobody plasmids for real time monitoring of key intracellular target molecules in vivo.
2011
ChromoTek moves into IZB in Martinsried
2010
ChromoTek introduces Nano-Boosters and Nano-Labels: fluorescently labeled Nanobodies for advanced immunofluorescence.
2008
- ChromoTek launches GFP-Trap, the worldwide first Nanobody-based reagent for immunoprecipitation of fluorescent proteins
- ChromoTek starts to pioneer the use of Nanobodies for research applications
- Foundation of ChromoTek GmbH in Munich, Germany
