Who We Serve

We develop analytical methods using phase-appropriate standards to support in-process and release testing, ensuring quality and regulatory alignment as programs advance.

Emerging Biopharma

AES Biologics supports clinical-stage innovators advancing recombinant proteins, peptides, and enzymes that need:

  • Efficient, high-fidelity tech transfer
  • Support optimizing upstream and purification strategies
  • Clinical Trial Material and data enabling regulatory submissions
  • A scientific partner who provides hands-on, collaborative guidance

Growing Biotechs with Specialized Needs

Ideal for teams with complex development challenges requiring:

  • Expertise in overcoming expression, solubility, or folding issues
  • Refolding strategies for difficult proteins
  • Flexible timelines without large CDMO delays
  • Engineering-based problem solving

Teams requiring GMP Drug Substance and Reliable Reference Standards

We support teams needing:

  • Purified, aliquoted, and qualified reference standards
  • Non-GMP and GMP Drug Substance
  • Controlled, semi-automated vial filling to minimize contamination risk
  • Stability and characterization supporting assay readiness

What We Support

Molecular clusters in a microscopic world

AES Biologics currently focuses on microbial programs involving:

  • Therapeutic proteins
  • Recombinant enzymes
  • Novel or engineering proteins
  • Difficult to express proteins
  • PEGylated proteins (depending on workflow and feasibility)
  • Extracellular, intracellular, periplasmic, and inclusion body expressions
Inclusion Body Formation & Refolding

Proteins that express but do not fold correctly.

How we help: Structured refolding workflows and upstream optimization strategies

Slow or Rigid Timelines

Large CDMOs often deprioritize early programs, resulting in costly delays.

How we help: Faster, more responsive tech transfer

Reference Standard Quality Issues

Variability affecting assay reliability

How we help: Purified, aliquoted, and qualified reference standards with semi-automated filling.

Regulatory Pressure

Pre-clinical and Clinical-stage teams navigating evolving expectations

How we help: Phase-appropriate documentation and filing support aligned with FDA/EMA requirements.
