"Kilobaser is certainly a game-changer in the world of oligo synthesis and we are proud to be a part of this revolutionary journey"
### Sérgio Nozawa, PhD
CSO & Gov. Affairs at Evolutta Agro Biotech
“\[Until now\] I tried to build small oligos around 20 to 25 oligos and everything went very well. \[…\] Generally, I am very very satisfied with the product. It is the first Kilobaser in Brazil."
### Dr. Flavia Gama Gomes Leite
Virologist at IST Austria
“We tested Kilobaser and were very satisfied with the results. PCRs were successfully performed and we anticipate that such an equipment would be a valuable asset to any lab that does molecular cloning.”
### Rüdiger Trojok, Diplom Biologist
Laboratory Lead at UnternehmerTUM
"Kilobaser is a great product that is very much needed in times like this. It prints DNA that can be tested against samples within 2h."
