Thanks to the many who have responded!
Here is what I have found out, in case anyone else needs this info:
ICN/Cambridge Research Biochemicals used to carry kits both for the PIN method,
and for a SPOTS method where the peptides are synth'd on a membrane. In the latter case
the peptides cannot be cleaved from the membrane support.
Chiron Mimetopes in San Diego (619-455-3710) now carries the PIN kit,
& the SPOTS kit is now being marketed by Genosys in Texas (1-800-234-5362).
