Our Science

Delivering fair and reliable enzymes

At Beneficial Bio we work to empower all researchers to accelerate and optimize their research.

At Mboalab Biotech, our Cameroonian node, we are producing enzymes that are routinely used in molecular biology such as DNA polymerases and reverse transcriptases. Local production using eco-friendly technologies ensures quick turnaround times, affordable products and rapid delivery to your lab. 

We are creating novel, robust and reliable formulations such as dry master mixes that can withstand a cold-chain free transport, to deliver your favourite enzymes regardless of transport conditions. All of our products undergo strict quality controls to ensure reliability for your research. 

If you need training and skills to get the best from our products, let us know! We are dedicated to offer local technical support and help you with custom primers and sequencing services that best suits your needs. For any queries about these services, contact us at address/number

We are always looking to improve on how to support your research. Which enzyme do you use the most in your daily research? Submit your preferences in our (coming soon) enzyme survey!

Accessible lab equipment

Have you ever dreamed of producing the enzymes needed for your research directly in your own lab?

At Beneficial Bio, in collaboration with the University of Cambridge, Cambridge-dt and Cambridge Biomakespace we are working on an open-source, customizable, low-cost bioreactor that can be built by everyone, everywhere. 

Grow your bacteria and express your enzyme of choice controlling the temperature, pH and aeration of your culture. Add up to four completely customizable inlet/outlet pumps. The process is controlled by an Arduino board, and the program code is fully open source and ready for customization. The system offers a simple to operate design, which is easy to sterilize and clean.

You will be able to order the individual parts listed on the bioreactor manual or order our bioreactor assembly kit, inclusive of ready-to-assemble parts and instruction manual.

A great asset for your research and to teach biotechnology to undergraduate and graduate students alike. 

We are here to help empower your research.
