CiteAb's protein database covers more than 300 suppliers, capturing how protein reagents are being used across life science research. In this new award, we recognise the supplier gaining traction in this space by providing proteins that support cancer researchers globally.
We used the following methodology to determine the Highly Commended awardee:
- Limiting analysis to protein citations in cancer-related publications
- Calculating the supplier with the second largest percentage increase in citations in the previous year
- Excluding suppliers with fewer than ten citations
We are pleased to recognise ACROBiosystems as Highly Commended in the Protein Supplier to Watch in Cancer Research Award.
ACROBiosystems have a focus in manufacturing recombinant proteins, as well as other key reagents, to support the biopharmaceutical industry. This win reflects their continued contribution to advancing cancer research.
