Introduction

Grape-derived exosomes (GEVs) represent a fascinating advancement in plant nanovesicle research. Naturally occurring, nanoscale vesicles isolated from grape juice, GEVs are rich in antioxidants and bioactive molecules that play significant roles in intercellular communication and nutrient transport. Creative Biolabs, a pioneer in plant-derived exosome research, offers an advanced portfolio of grape exosome services to support diverse basic research goals in biotechnology, molecular biology, and plant sciences.

Unlike traditional extracts, GEVs offer greater biological stability and targeted delivery capabilities. Their phospholipid bilayer protects active compounds during delivery, and their vesicular structure enables efficient penetration into cells and tissues. This makes them a valuable subject for studies on cellular communication, antioxidant action, and tissue homeostasis.
