Research & Development

  • RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

    To establish as a premier biotechnology company providing high quality, affordable biological products through excellence in manufacturing. 

    The company’s Biotech facility is built and meant to operate as a multi-purpose facility for products from natural extracts and for products developed in genetically modified host cells like bacterial, yeast and mammalian cells. It meets the requirements of the company for the initial process development as well as for scale-up to meet clinical trials and commercial batches. The facility complies to the cGMP standards and has best in the class capabilities for cell banking, cell culture, purification and formulation of developed drug substances.

    PRIORITY AREAS

    Our R & D programs currently focus on potential treatments targeting therapeutic areas such as:

    • Gynaecology.
    • Emergency medicine.
    • Assisted reproductive technologies.
    • Nephrology and 
    • Haematology.
