Peptrack™ Peptide Libraries
JPT Peptide Technologies is the leading provider of peptide libraries for T-cell assays and proteomic applications worldwide. Together with its partners in the vaccine industry, governmental and non-profit organizations, as well as universities JPT defined specific requirements for peptides to be used for T-cell assays in the various phases of vaccine development. These specifications were translated to a product line called PepTrack™ Peptide Libraries offering tailor made solutions for all peptide needs in vaccine development. Using its regulated environment (DIN EN ISO 9001:2008, GCLP), JPT produces more individual peptides on an annual basis than any other company worldwide.

Research Track - Peptrack™ Peptide Libraries
Research Track Peptide Libraries are designed for applications in T-cell assays requiring large numbers of fully analyzed peptides in quantities of 1-5mg. All peptides are fully analyzed for identity and purity by LC-MS (no MALDI-MS!). In addition, JPT’s peptide synthesis protocols are optimized to avoid contaminations and failure sequences which cause either false positive T-cell responses or toxic inhibition

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unpurified - no purity guarantee! | LC-MS | 7-15aa | 1-5 mg | 2 weeks | from 25 $ / € |
| Main product corresponds to target peptide | LC-MS | 7-15aa | 1-5 mg | 2 weeks | please inquire |
* for larger amounts please inquire
Delivery Format: 96-array tube format
Discovery Track - Peptrack™ Peptide Libraries
Discovery Track Peptide Libraries have defined purities for applications requiring similar and specified purities of all peptides (i.e. immune monitoring). Each peptide has a guaranteed minimum specification. All peptides will be QC’d by LC-MS (not MALDI-MS!).
| Purity | QA/QC | Length | Scale* | Delivery | Price/peptide |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| >70% | LC-MS | 7-15aa | 1-5 mg | 3 weeks | from 45 $ / € |

Delivery Format: 96-array tube format
Trial Track - Peptrack™ Peptide Libraries
Trial Track Peptide Libraries were designed to provide a reliable source of peptides and peptide pools for application as monitoring tools in clinical vaccination trials. All productions run in a regulated environment according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 & Good Clinical Laboratory Practices (GCLP) regulations. Synthesis protocols were optimized to reduce toxic contaminations as well as formation of deletion peptides and cross contaminants causing false positive T-cell responses. All peptides have guaranteed purities.
| Purity | QA/QC | Length | Scale* | Delivery | Price/peptide |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| >80% | LC-MS | 7-15aa | 1-5mg | 2 weeks | from 69 $ / € |

Testimonials for Peptrack™ Peptide Libraries
"I have been collaborating with JPT for several years. Their unique peptide library technologies and knowledge of specific peptide requirements for T-cell assays made them a valuable, long-term partner in our efforts to develop novel adoptive immunotherapy approaches to prevent and treat viral infections post-transplant as well as for the treatment of virus and non virus-associated malignancies. Furthermore, their reagents allow us to precisely monitor and track specific T cell populations post-infusion"
Ann Leen, PhD (Baylor College of Medicine, Center for Cell and Gene Therapy, Houston, TX, USA)
“We utilize JPT’s peptide libraries and pools for T-cell epitope mapping and immune monitoring applications such as ELISPOT and ICS, as well as CFC. The combination of synthesis economy, quick turnaround time and tailored specifications are key to our success. JPT’s scientific competence is invaluable for all institutions planning to employ peptides in immuno assays for research or clinical setups."
Johannes Hampl, PhD (Anza Therapeutics, Inc Concord, CA, USA)
