Exciting Announcement!

Join us in welcoming our newest team member, Maria Andersson to the Ebba Biotech family! We’re thrilled to have Maria on board as our Team and Sales Lead, bringing a genuine excitement to push Ebba Biotech forward in the Life Science industry.

About Maria
I’m originally from the northern part of Sweden but relocated to Uppsala in 2018 to pursue a Bachelor’s in Biomedicine. After three years, my curiosity for the business side of the life science industry led me to the Master’s program in Bioentrepreneurship at Karolinska Institutet, from which I graduated this June. I’m now very excited for the journey ahead at Ebba Biotech, where I can apply my knowledge and continue learning from the talented team already working in the company.

• I don’t drink coffee
• I ran the Stockholm Marathon this summer (it was the first and also the last time I did that)
• I watch a lot of reality TV shows, especially Swedish ones

Lead times at Ebba Biotech range from 2-5 business days - but you will always receive a confirmation email from our team to keep you informed! We ship with FedEx International Priority from Sweden - so most orders arrive within 2 days.

On Saturday our team rounded off another successful conference in Copenhagen at EuroBiofilms 2024.

 Thank you to the organisers for facilitating such an outstanding conference! We were able to connect with new researchers and also see the fantastic work that our users are doing with EbbaBiolight. In fact, it was an added benefit being able to see some interesting EbbaBiolight images from the CytaCoat team during the poster session! 

Again, it was an exciting treat to see how many of you wanted to represent Ebba Biotech at home with our fabulous tote bags! Can't wait to see you all again in 2026 in Portugal!

Or “Happy Midsummer” to our foreign fans! The team at Ebba Biotech kicked off our summer with a pizza party in the Swedish sunshine and would like to wish you all a fantastic summer. 

Our office will be open throughout the season, so there is always going to be someone ready to answer your questions or assist with orders.

Have a wonderful summer ahead! 

Just purchased our product and wondering about how to store it?

β-2-microglobulin is a protein present in all nucleated cells and is elevated in many tumors or inflammatory diseases. It is well known that the protein has a propensity for aggregation. A study published in the journal Immunity by Hofbauer et al. has investigated the role of β-2-microglobulin aggregates on the activation of inflammatory processes in Multiple Myeloma. Amtracker 480 has been used in the study to detect amyloid aggregates of β-2-microglobulin in live macrophages and detected by Flow Cytometry.

A publication in iScience by Jitka Petrlova from Artur Schmidtchen’s group at Lunds University discovered an interesting connection between Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and the wound healing process. The researchers found that LPS, the outer membrane component of gram-negative bacteria, can induce protein aggregation in wounds and isolated wound fluids. This process would, in turn, reduce inflammation and contribute to wound healing. To detect the formation of amyloid-like aggregates, they used Amytracker 680 and observed under a fluorescent microscope.

Did you know that, according to the Parkinson’s Foundation, more than 10 million people worldwide are living with Parkinson’s disease? Here at Ebba Biotech we are constantly in discussions with academics and industries that are actively researching and developing therapies to tackle Parkinson’s disease using our Amytracker product family as a visualisation tool.

One company we would like to highlight is reMYND! The team at reMYND have been utilising the Amytracker 520 variant to enhance their imaging in mice - just look at the images below and hear from reMYND themselves!

“Focusing on the top image, we peer into the injection site (dorsal striatum), where pathogenic fibrils lurk (using DAPI as a nuclear stain). But the story doesn’t end there -as the pathology spreads throughout the mouse brain, it infiltrates crucial regions like the amygdala (lower image). With exceptional precision, Amytracker detects Lewy Bodies and Lewy Neurites, pivotal entities in Parkinson’s disease pathology. Paving the way for quantification of drug efficacy or target engagement studies for our clients.”

We are excited to follow reMYND as they continue to create positive change in the neurodegenerative field. To learn more about their work click here

A repeat expansion in the C9orf72 gene is the most frequent cause of ALS and FTD. Researchers from Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry and University Medical Center Gröningen revealed the molecular mechanism behind Dipeptide Repeat Proteins (DRP) cytotoxicity in their publication in the journal eLife. They used Amytracker 680 to localize and characterize both cytoplasmic and nuclear DRP aggregates.
