Following researcher feedback, CiteAb expanded its reagent coverage with the introduction of a nucleotide reagent database, spanning over 830k products from 82 suppliers. Plasmids are a core part of this dataset.
The Plasmid Supplier of the Year Award recognises the suppliers whose plasmid products are making a tangible difference to researchers.
We used the following methodology to determine the Highly Commended awardee:
- Limiting analysis to plasmid citations
- Calculating the supplier with the second highest citation count in the previous year
We are pleased to recognise OriGene as Highly Commended in the Plasmid Supplier of the Year Award.
OriGene has a strong focus on genomic and proteomic research. This win reflects their strong citation presence for plasmids, essential tools in these fields.
