Lifeasible expanded its insecticidal proteins offerings for plant research

Date:11-28-2024

Lifeasible, a biotechnology company serving agricultural science that offers a wide range of agro-related products and services for research use, expands its offerings for insecticidal proteins for plant breeding research.

Insect pests pose a major threat to global food production, causing billions of dollars in crop losses each year. Traditional pesticides, while effective, often have harmful environmental and health effects.

Insecticidal proteins are employed to mechanically manage crop pests, such as spraying microbial preparations containing several bacterial strains onto plant surfaces and genetically designing transgenic plants to express insecticides. In contrast to the agricultural, chemical, and physical control methods employed in the prior art, the method is pollution-free, residue-free, stable, comprehensive, easy to use, and cost-effective. It also enables plant protection throughout its growth period and minimizes pest damage.

    

As a biotechnology company, Lifeasible is committed to supporting the growth of agricultural science and providing customers with potent insecticidal proteins that can iron out the difficulties of studies involving crop protection, pest management, transgenic plants, and other botanic research applications.

Some of the featured products include: Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cry1ab Protein, Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cry1F Protein, Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cry2Ab Protein, Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis cry3B Protein, Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis Vip3A Protein, Recombinant Bacillus thuringiensis Vip3Aa19 Protein...
