ABOUT

PROTEIN CAPTURE SCIENCE


Protein Capture Science is a privately held company in Columbus, Ohio.

Protein Capture Science was founded in 2018 by experts in protein purification and product development. The company is focused on developing and commercializing a self-cleaving tag platform for proteins and protein fragments purification for R&D and manufacturing applications. The iCapTag™ was designed as a single platform which can be used from early discovery, R&D to manufacturing.

This platform was originally developed and patented by Dr. David W. Wood and his team at the Ohio State University (see pictures below). It is a result of over 20 years of research in that field and strong collaboration with experts in the protein purification field in the U.S., Asia, and Europe.
