A study based on 135 chiral centers in 69 chiral drug syntheses showed the most important sources of chirality are chiral pool (55%) and classical resolution (28%). Larger scale processes tend to move to chemo and / or biocatalytic methods, for reasons of cost effectiveness.
Our priorities are focused on turning cutting-edge science into innovative products that address significant unmet needs, and thus have the potential to become important advances. ChiralVision is a global research-driven company that develops, manufactures and markets immobilized enzymes and chiral intermediates to address unmet needs.
Enzymes for industrial use are applied in detergents and animal feed, in the production of bread, wine and fruit juice, and also in the treatment of textiles and leather. Enzymes can replace traditional chemicals or additives and help to save water and energy in a variety of production processes. Enzymes are found in all living organisms - for API production always non-human and non-animal bacterial or plant enzymes are used.
