In Focus : Arachidonic Acid
Arachidonic acid is an omega-6 fatty acid. The compound is abundant in liver, brain, and depot fats of animals. It is also found in chicken, egg, fish, and human mother milk.
In Focus : Oleic Acid
Oleic acid is an organic liquid that belongs to class of organic fatty acids. It is a monosaturated omega-9 fatty acid that occurs naturally as triglyceride in vegetable oils and fats, tallow oil, olive oil, and membrane phospholipids.
In Focus: Linoleic Acid
Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. It is a colorless liquid that is virtually insoluble in water but soluble in many organic solvents. It typically occurs in nature as a triglyceride (ester of glycerin) rather than as a free fatty acid.
Continuous manufacturing (CM): A game changer for pharma
Why will CM be the next generation on quality?
In Focus: Ethyl Linoleate
Ethyl Linoleate belongs to the chemical class of fatty acids, which are organic compounds with one or more long hydrocarbon chains. These molecules are characterized by having two carbons atoms with a double bond between them.
In Focus: 2-Picolinic acid
2-Picolinic acid, an organic compound, is a derivative of pyridine with a carboxylic acid substituent at the 2-position. It is a white solid that is soluble in water.
In Focus: 2-Phenylethylamine
2-Phenylethylamine is a water-soluble amine with a fishy odor. It is often referred to simply as “phenethylamine”, but that can also be interpreted as 1-phenylethylamine.
In Focus: 4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole
4-Amino-1,2,4-triazole is an organic solid belonging to the heterocyclic category of compounds. By virtue of presence of 3 nitrogen atoms, the molecule is biologically active and thus acts as antimicrobial and antifungal agent.
ICCM5 adopts new framework
The Fifth International Conference on Chemicals Management (ICCM5) concluded on 30 September in Bonn, Germany, by adopting “a comprehensive global framework that sets concrete targets and guidelines for key sectors across the entire lifecycle of chemicals”.
