LGC Promochem and ATCC launch new website

Date: 6th December 2005

LGC Promochem launches new look web site at www.lgcpromochem.com/atcc - improving the search for authentic ATCC products for the European life sciences community

Today, LGC Promochem, the exclusive distributor for ATCC products in Europe, launches an improved interactive website, designed to assist customers searching for authentic ATCC cultures and bioproducts.

Developed in conjunction with ATCC, the new site offers a host of benefits to customers, such as improved searching, easier access to ATCC's clone resources, a new quick order function for account holders, and lists of new products available from ATCC, all of which will make a significant difference to all users. The website also offers full pricing information on all ATCC products in both Euro and GBP, advice on restrictions or permits required for the transfer of cultures between the USA and Europe, and a comprehensive technical help area with advice on growing ATCC cultures and which products to use.

Jeffrey Anthony, ATCC Business Development Manager at LGC Promochem, said:

"The new website is a key tool in our efforts to improve access to the ATCC collection for our customers across Europe. The new functionality available, along with an updated look and feel for the site, will assist more scientists than ever in their search for authentic ATCC materials. A programme of continuous improvement to the site’s functionality is planned through a process of consultation with our European customer base and we hope that the site will develop into a key resource for customers across all segments of the product range including cell biology, microbiology and molecular genomics.”

Michael Gove, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at ATCC, said:

“LGC Promochem’s experience in the life science industry makes it a superior partner for distributing ATCC cultures and bioproducts. Service to our customers in Europe is now faster and more efficient than ever, especially for products that are now stocked locally. This new website will allow our European customers to access all the information they need to work successfully with ATCC cultures.”

The website is now available to view at www.lgcpromochem.com/atcc and offers information on the entire range of ATCC cultures and bioproducts.
