"Our partnership with Sigma-Aldrich over the past couple of years has enabled us, through Sigma's strong brand awareness and global distribution network, to successfully target proteomics and cell biology researchers who, in turn, are now benefiting from using Prestige Antibodies," commented Marianne Hansson, co-founder and CEO of Atlas Antibodies AB.  "As Sigma continues to grow its market presence, we will continue to add new products to our portfolio and make these available on an ongoing basis through Sigma to the research communities."

"As the leading source for biomolecules to the life sciences and biology markets, our mission is to enhance the understanding of biology for every researcher and facilitate the research work that is rewriting the rules of science and medicine," added Dr. David Smoller, President of Sigma-Aldrich's Research Biotech business unit. "Extending our offering of high-quality, highly validated Prestige Antibodies further enables proteomics and cell biology researchers worldwide to understand biology and the study of disease. As part of our recently-launched 'Where Bio Begins' initiative, we have created a Biomolecules microsite which provides researchers and biologists with targeted information on biologically-rich products and technologies, including easy access to our entire range of antibodies."
