Proxeon in Proteomics
Our History and Philosophy

For more than a decade the town of Odense in Denmark has been associated with the world of proteomics. Many of its leading scientists have been involved from the earliest days of proteomics, and have faced the same challenges as proteomics scientists throughout the world.

The "proteomics approach" often requires new ways of working to cope with increasing throughput and volume of information and techniques are pushed to their performance limits in order to achieve the most comprehensive, reliable results as quickly as possible.

From the beginning,  scientists at Proxeon (formerly Protana) have focused on developing products and solutions wherever they identify a need to enhance performance in order to accelerate the proteomics workflow.

Early examples of this focus include nano ES ion sources, now used in over 700 laboratories, and the range of nano ES emitters, for which Proxeon is one of the world's largest suppliers.

Nano ES products and the latest EASY-nLC and ProteinCenter offerings clearly demonstrate the development philosophy of Proxeon - to produce products that enhance performance, solve technical challenges, and are always of the highest quality and workmanship.
