Reagents for PEGylation:
Monodisperse and polydisperse hydrophilic linkers, used to improve solubility and pharmacokinetic properties of peptides, proteins, biopharmaceuticals and organic drug molecules. We carry the world wide largest portfolio, as we supply short monodisperse compounds with increasing chain length up to large, polydisperse polymers. All products can also be manufactured in large scale and according to cGMP.

Biocatalysis
We offer a wide range of unusual and innovative enzymes, immobilised enzymes and enzyme carriers for modern biocatalysis. Synthesis or optical resolution of racemic mixtures of Amines, Amides and Esters are applications, which are wide used. Esterification and transesterification with lipases and esterases are used in commercial productions from food industry to biodiesel production.

PGA – Poly(Glutamic Acid)
A Modern versatile Polymer as Drug Carrier for Drug Delivery,
Tissue Engineering, Sensing, Catalysis, NanoMedicinen

Poly(glutamic acid) is a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, which can be conjugated through side chain condensation with any suitable molecule. Due to a controlled proprietary and patented process with living polymerization technology a superior quality of PGA is being achieved. Usual poly amino acids carry significant amount of cyclic structures, carbamates or isocyanates. Through a very well controlled polymerization process well defined terminal groups and polymeric structure is being achieved in high purity and with superior polydispersity. Through “living polymer” technology also multifunctional PGA polymers can be produced through post polymerization modification.
