Pharmaceutical manufacturing has traditionally been performed using batch process techniques. Batch processes have been proven over many decades of use, but can have shortcomings when it comes to ...

Chemists designed a new photoredox catalyst that could make it easier to incorporate light-driven reactions into continuous flow manufacturing processes. The polymer catalysts could be used to coat ...

The antibiotic cefazolin is an essential drug according to the World Health Organization (WHO). It is usually produced via batch manufacturing, but this multistep process is time-consuming, wasteful ...

Peptides, as essential biomolecules linking amino acids and proteins, play a vital role across numerous disciplines, including life science research, drug discovery, biomaterials engineering, and ...

CDMO Cambrex, an early adopter of continuous flow manufacturing, has completed installation of multiple continuous flow reactor platforms at its facility in High Point, North Carolina. A growing ...

One of the main challenges came from the complex structure of cefazolin itself. Until now, no one had seemingly been able to develop a reaction method capable of synthesizing a highly purified drug by ...

Standard methods for additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, have major drawbacks with regards to process speed and mechanical strength of the finished product. Standard commercial ...

The way drugs are made is dangerously outdated. While many industries have gotten much more efficient at manufacturing, pharmaceutical companies rely on an old-fashioned approach that is slow, ...
