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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the need to rapidly develop, produce and distribute large quantities of new vaccines. A team of researchers at Purdue University and Merck & Co. Inc.

Evidence from several Shell operating units confirms that daily allocation based on continuous well flow estimates can be more accurate than the more traditional approach based on well testing. The ...

Researchers have developed a pioneering, sustainable method for producing cadmium-based quantum dots (QDs) in water using a biocompatible chalcogen source. This fully aqueous, continuous flow process ...

I'm always interested in how "new" ideas for business improvement come about and whether they are really original and new. For example, today there is the widespread application of lean manufacturing ...

image: MIT chemists have designed a new type of photoredox catalyst that could make it easier to incorporate light-driven reactions into continuous flow manufacturing processes. The polymer catalysts ...

Promethean Particles, a UK-based specialist manufacturer of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and nanomaterials, has developed ...
