ABOUT BOSTER BIO

Reliable Reagents. Evidence You Can Evaluate.

Since 1993, Boster Bio has developed research-use antibodies, ELISA kits, custom reagents, and analytical services to help scientists make informed product decisions and move experiments forward with greater confidence.

From Histology Expertise to Broader Research Solutions

Who Boster Bio Is

Boster Bio is a life science reagent manufacturer and research service provider founded in 1993 by histologist Steven Xia. The company develops research-use products and laboratory services that help scientists detect, measure, and investigate biological targets with greater confidence.

Who We Serve

Boster supports researchers in academic institutions, biotechnology companies, pharmaceutical organizations, and other life science laboratories. Our products and services are designed for teams at different stages of their work—from selecting a catalog reagent and reviewing validation evidence to developing a custom solution or outsourcing laboratory testing.

Built on More Than 30 Years of Experience

Boster began by developing reagents for tissue-based research at a time when access to specialized laboratory products was limited. This foundation in histology shaped a practical approach to biological detection: a research reagent needed to perform in a real sample, under defined experimental conditions, and produce results that researchers could interpret with confidence.

The company subsequently expanded into primary antibody development and established the PicoKine® ELISA platform. As research needs evolved, Boster continued to broaden its product portfolio, scientific capabilities, and laboratory services.

Products, Applications, and Services

Boster’s catalog includes primary and secondary antibodies, ELISA kits and antibody pairs, recombinant proteins, assay reagents, and related research tools. These products support western blotting, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, ELISA, flow cytometry, immunoprecipitation, and other protein research workflows.

For projects beyond the catalog, Boster provides antibody discovery and production, recombinant protein expression, custom reagent development, analytical assays, and additional laboratory services.

Across these areas, our purpose remains consistent: to provide reliable research tools, relevant scientific information, and practical support for the next research decision.

Quality Should Be Visible in the Evidence

A quality statement is more useful when researchers can examine the information behind it. Our approach is therefore centered on connecting product claims with application-specific evidence and practical experimental context.

01 Start with the Intended Use

Product evaluation begins with the target, species, sample type, expected application, and biological context in which the reagent will be used.

02 Generate Relevant Experimental Data

Products are assessed using methods and conditions relevant to their stated applications. The type and extent of available data may vary by product.

03 Provide Supporting Information

Depending on the product, supporting information may include validation images, sample details, expected molecular weight, recommended conditions, protocols, citations, and customer-generated results.

04 Continue Supporting the Experiment

When the available information does not fully address a researcher’s application, our technical and service teams can help review the product, troubleshoot the method, or evaluate an alternative approach.

Validation Information

Boster Guarantee

When Existing Product Data Is Not Enough

Published product data cannot represent every combination of sample, species, target, and experimental condition.

Boster’s Free Antibody Validation program allows researchers to request testing in a specified application and sample context. The resulting report provides additional experimental evidence that can support product evaluation before broader adoption.

This program reflects a broader principle behind our work: researchers should be able to assess relevant evidence before committing valuable time, samples, and resources.

Evidence from Research Laboratories

Internal testing is one part of product evaluation. Peer-reviewed citations, customer-submitted images, and detailed product reviews can provide additional context about how a reagent has been used in other laboratories, samples, and experimental settings.

These external results do not replace application-specific evaluation. They help researchers determine whether the available evidence is relevant to their own experimental design.
