Phosphoramidites for Oligonucleotide Synthesis |
Thermo Scientific phosphoramidites are built to help meet varying needs of oligonucleotide synthesis from research applications to manufacturing. For research and early development, there are over 136 ready-to-ship phosphoramidites (abbreviated as amidites below) of small pack sizes in the online catalog.
Custom solutions and modification capabilities are available to support you from the beginning at the discovery phase. Our core scale-up competencies help ensure continuity all the way to the large-scale volume. With manufacturing expertise in custom nucleic acid chemistry for more than 40 years, our technical experts help ensure the consistent quality and security of supply chain for scaling up from grams to metric tons (MT).
Amidites are the building blocks used in chemical synthesis of oligonucleotides. Optimize your oligo synthesis and manufacturing process development with our large selection of amidites offerings that are also available in two quality grades.
Common base modifications—2′-MOE, 2′-OMe, and 2′-fluoro—for the synthesis of antisense oligos and siRNAs.
For synthesis of DNA oligos used in research related to diagnostic and therapeutic development.
Synthesis of RNA oligos for research in diagnostic and therapeutic development
With fluorescent labels for synthesis of oligos for detection in molecular assays and microarrays.
Linkers at 3′, 5′, or internal positions for NHS ester conjugation; and spacers to increase conformational support.
With modifications (e.g., 5m-dC, N6-Me-dA, N4-Ethyl-dC, 8-oxo-dG) for synthesis of primers, probes, or oligos.
DNA succinates for the derivatization of controlled pore glass, polystyrene, or other supports used in solid-phase oligo synthesis.
Processes are monitored from starting material procurement to final QC and product release. Our rigorously controlled manufacturing processes help maximize batch-to-batch reproducibility and minimize levels of reactive P(III) impurities, which could accumulate as by-products into the oligonucleotide during synthesis.

Phosphoramidites are the key raw material and building blocks of oligonucleotides. Incorporating quality testing into the manufacturing process development from the beginning is a best practice for supporting research and development activities related to therapeutics or diagnostics. The comprehensive QC processes include the analysis of phosphoramidites that is crucial to monitoring the impurity levels.
