Viral Research

We offer collaborative support and a broad portfolio of reagents that are used in research labs studying coronaviruses and other emerging viral diseases. We support scientists working to develop vaccines and to answer questions about viral pathology and treatment including:

  • How does the virus enter human cells?
  • How does the virus make people sick?
  • What treatments can be used to alleviate symptoms?
  • How can immunity to the virus be gained?

Tracking and Monitoring Viral Activity in Cells

Promega technologies are used in studies monitoring key steps in viral pathogenesis, including detecting virus interactions with host cell surface receptors, tracking and monitoring production of viral nucleic acids and proteins within the cell, and monitoring host cell viability and metabolism.
