Touchlight AAV is advancing gene therapy by offering its synthetic, linear, double stranded DNA as the new industry standard for transfection-based AAV production. We believe it is a safer, more effective, more scalable and faster way to manufacture AAV.

Safer
dbDNA is produced enzymatically and eliminates bacterial sequences, thus preventing aberrant packaging of bacterial origins of replication and antibiotic resistance genes.
More effective
dbDNA eliminates unwanted sequences, enabling you to transfect more of what you want, and less of what you don’t need to increase titers without optimization.
Scalable
dbDNA is manufactured from milligram to multi-gram scale with an identical process, in the same facility – we can grow with your success.
Faster to manufacture
dbDNA is manufactured in days, not months, and PO to delivery will be less than 3 months in most cases. Take raw materials off your critical path to AAV.
