Background

Hello, international scientists, my name is Chip Lindgren and I am the Founder & President of AG Scientific, Inc. Founded in 1997, we are focused on advancing drug development via innovative biochemicals for preclinical research, as well as, custom raw materials for diagnostic test development.

Philosophy

• We are proud to announce our 20th year in business.

• We were founded on being real people with a rapid response. We truly embrace the idiom, the early bird catches the worm.  We want to be ever present on our website, on the phone, promptly preparing your price quote, delivering your product and exceeding your expectation. We encourage our client’s to put a name to the face.

• Currently, too many internet companies hide behind the unknown email address, reveal no detail on who you are working with, or even where the product is manufactured. We believe your trust is earned and not a given. We believe in lifelong partnerships!  

• We have also seen a radical transformation in the Life Science industry. The consolidation of companies into mega-conglomerates has resulted in less personal service, automated phone extensions, slower response times, extensive overhead add-ons, laidback urgencies on deliveries and higher overall prices. This fact has left us invigorated to compete. We take great pleasure in the realization that working with AG Scientific, Inc. streamlines the order process, permitting you the same product with better service, upgraded delivery, and lower overall price.

Corporate Promise

• AGScientific, Inc., an ISO 9001: 2008 certified facility since 2005, will handle your projects with integrity and privacy. We will listen to your requirements and be extremely responsive to your needs. Comprehensive customer service and accountability at all phases of your project is our pledge.

• AG Scientific’s team is straight forward, consisting of forthright people. We do not hide behind ‘the email curtain’. We will build a professional rapport, so you know who you are dealing with and who will be responsive to all your specific requirements. We take great pride returning to a true level of customer responsiveness that sets us apart in this marketplace. We value returning to a more person-to-person interaction; pick up the phone, video conference, visit the client. We want you to be 100% comfortable in our partnership.

• We will employ the highest quality standards to ensure the utmost accuracy. On time delivery is a hallmark of our organization. You will be consistently informed of the status of your project so that you can confidently & effectively communicate to your organization. Our desire is to make this the best overall experience and earn a life-long client. This is our solemn commitment to you.

History

• I am an educated microbiologist from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst

• We are established expert in fermentation derived secondary metabolites. Most products are antibiotics for gene selection, but products also include antimicrobial, anti-fungal, anti-cancer, antiviral, anti-parasitic and immunosuppressive reagents. Our breakthrough product was a partnership with Eli Lilly’s, Elanco division to purchase bulk Hygromycin B.

Antibiotics:

• Elanco used Hygromycin B in their pig feed but our application was the emergence of genetic engineering by performing plasmid cloning utilizing an antibiotic resistance marker. AG Scientific, Inc. developed a suite of Antibiotic selection agents including Blasticidin S, G-418, Puromycin, Gentamycin, Kanamycin, Ampicillin, Streptomycin, Carbenicillin…. We began successfully promoting this item at the time to all the leading Molecular Biology companies, sigma Chemical, Stratagene, Invitrogen, Clontech, ICN, Amersham….

• Most recently we have partnered with pharmaceutical clients utilizing CRISPR technology. The same antibiotic selection is employed before CRISPR/Cas system is utilized. This has blown open the door to a number of inherited diseases previously only treated therapeutically.
