We will be relocating our Stockholm (Solna) branch on January 1st. The move will be short - less than 500 m - to a new location within Karolinska Institutet Science Park. Our street address changes from Fogdevreten 2 to Nobels väg 16. Postcode and phone numbers remain the same. Due to our move some delays in delivery can occur from Friday December 18th until Friday January 8th. Please allow up to 10 working days from placing an order to delivery (our normal turn-around time is 2-5 working days)

On September 1st, 2020 John Bergqvist joined us as Research Engineer. He is responsible for keeping in touch with our Customers. John holds an Integrated Masters of Science in Microbiology with specialisation in Bacteriology from University of Glasgow and has gained research experience at Institut Pasteur working with Shigella bacteria.

Also, recently, Ylva Nordström joined us as Operations Engineer. She is responsible for running daily operations at Ebba Biotech. Ylva holds a Master of Science in Vehicle Engineering with specialisation in Sustainable Energy Engineering from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm.

During this autumn we have updated our website to include more practical information on how to use our Optotracers in general and specifically Carbotrace, EbbaBiolight and Amytracker with relevant publications, protocols and videos.

Carbotrace is our Optotracer (fluorescent tracer molecule) designed to target carbohydrate structures. We are proud to present our expansion of the Carbotrace series to include five wavelength variants and a Mix&Try kit.

“My passion has always been to make our nanoscience and organic chemistry research available to a wider audience. Finally, after spending years on research and development, we are ready and able to launch the full wavelength range of our fluorescent tracer (optotracer) molecule for probing and detecting bacterial biofilm under its new name EbbaBiolight.” says founder and chairman of Ebba Biotech AB, Professor Agneta Richter-Dahlfors.

The EbbaBiolight product series consists of five fluorescent tracer (optotracer) molecules: EbbaBiolight 480, EbbaBiolight 520, EbbaBiolight 540, EbbaBiolight 630 and EbbaBiolight 680. All variants are available to order in two volumes: 50 µl and 100 µl. We also offer the EbbaBiolight Mix&Try kit which contains the complete product series (five optotracer molecules) in volume of 10 µl each.

"With exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratio and spectral properties that are clearly distinguishable from biological autofluorescence, we especially recommend EbbaBiolight 680 for tracking of biofilm in live cultures.” says professor Agneta Richter-Dahlfors.

EbbaBiolight 680 has formerly been known under the commercial name ECtracer 680.

In the Amytracker product series we have - since a few years back - been producing and selling four Amytracker products and we are now proud to be able to launch a fifth one: Amytracker 540 - a green/yellow fluorescent tracer molecule for staining of amyloids and other protein aggregates. With excellent cellular uptake properties, we particularly recommend Amytracker 540 for live-cell imaging and in vivo studies. Amytracker 540 is available as ex vivo variant in two volumes: 50 µl and 100 µl (delivered as 2x50 µl). Please contact us for custom options and to request a quote for our in vivo products. Amytracker 540 will be included in our new Amytracker Mix&Try kit which contains the complete Amytracker product series with five different fluorescent tracers.
