Venom Supplies

About Venom Supplies

We are scientists serving scientists. Venom Supplies was founded to bridge the gap between raw venom diversity and the rigorous, reproducible reagents that modern neuroscience, pharmacology, and drug discovery programs demand.

Our Mission

To accelerate biomedical discovery by providing venoms, toxins, and engineered peptides characterized to the highest analytical standards—while upholding ethical sourcing, animal welfare, and environmental responsibility.

Our Story

Venom Supplies emerged from a simple frustration: toxin researchers struggled to obtain reproducible, well-documented reagents. Commercial suppliers often lacked the electrophysiology expertise to characterize their products, while academic labs had limited bandwidth to share materials broadly.

We assembled a team of toxinologists, analytical chemists, and electrophysiologists who understand that every data point matters. Our in-house validation ensures that when you open a vial of Venom Supplies toxin, you know precisely what activity to expect.

Today, we partner with universities, biotech firms, and global pharmaceutical companies—supplying reagents that anchor ion channel, pain, cardiovascular, and neuroimmune research programs.

Scientific Advisory Team

Our leadership combines deep domain expertise with operational excellence, ensuring every product meets research-grade expectations.

Dr. Marcus Reinholt

Chief Scientific Officer

20+ years in venom proteomics and ion channel pharmacology. Former academic faculty at a leading European research university.

Dr. Ananya Kulkarni

Director of Quality & Compliance

Expertise in analytical chemistry, GLP compliance, and regulatory documentation for biologics and peptide therapeutics.

Dr. Samuel Ortega

Head of Peptide Chemistry

Specialist in solid-phase synthesis, oxidative folding, and conjugation chemistry for complex disulfide-rich peptides.

Dr. Elena Marceau

Senior Electrophysiologist

Our Commitments

Scientific Integrity

We document what we ship. COAs include purity data, electrophysiology summaries, and lot-specific annotations, enabling transparent method sections and peer review.

Ethical Sourcing

Our captive-breeding partners operate under veterinary supervision, prioritizing animal welfare and sustainable colony management over short-term yield.

Environmental Responsibility

We minimize environmental impact through concentrated product formats, recyclable packaging, and partnerships with CITES-compliant conservation programs.
