Kerafast

Kerafast is a reagent company whose mission is to grow and foster a global community of scientists advancing life science research by facilitating access to bioresearch materials directly from the scientific community. Their portfolio includes cell lines, antibodies, small molecules, dyes and more, many of which are not available elsewhere.

Researchers from more than 200 institutions worldwide have made their innovative reagents available through Kerafast, where the materials can be quickly accessed without needing to go through the traditional Material Transfer Agreement process. Kerafast is committed to reinvesting back into research by returning a portion of the sale to the scientists and their institutions that contribute Reagents for the Greater Good.

In 2022, Kerafast became part of Absolute Biotech, who also has a number of other brands such as: Absolute Antibody, Exalpha, LSBio, Nordic-MUBio and Everest Biotech. Bio-Connect Life Sciences supplies all brands in the Benelux. If you have any questions, please contact the helpdesk.
