/PRNewswire/ --

Independent life science product review site now includes 36 types of custom

research services

1DegreeBio.org launches its custom services listings today, where providers

can list their custom research services for life scientists. The new listings will

allow 1DegreeBio's online community of more than 75,000 scientists to easily

find custom research service providers, as well as review services they've used.

"We are very excited to add custom research services to 1DegreeBio," said

Alex Hodgson, Managing Director, 1DegreeBio. "We've seen a huge increase in

the number of service providers in recent years. This has made it challenging

for providers to connect with customers and difficult for customers to identify

the best provider for their needs. Our service listings will simplify that process."

The listings are searchable by company and type of service, including custom

antibodies, assays, cloning, gene synthesis, cell line services, custom

proteins/peptides and gene profiling. Like other products on 1DegreeBio,

service providers are ranked in search by community reviews and

recommendations.

"As a research service provider, we applaud independent sites like 1DegreeBio

promoting accountability and quality in our industry," said Alan Sawyer,

Founding Director, Paratopes Ltd., a UK based, spin-off company of the

European Molecular Biology Laboratory's Monoclonal Antibodies Core Facility.

"These listings will help consumers quickly find the provider they need, and

promote the visibility of top quality service providers."

The listings complement 1DegreeBio's existing independent database of

research-grade antibodies and kits. The new service listings may be found at

http://services.1degreebio.org.

"1DegreeBio's continued expansion into new life science products and services

will go a long way to help scientists to find the best provider in a rapidly growing

pool of options," said Hodgson. "We are proud to support the scientific

community in this way, so they can keep doing great research."
