| LABS AT SPARC |
|
| At our research center, SPARC, we have labs across: |
|
|
|
|
|
| Organic synthesis |
|
| Process development |
|
| At these labs, we develop chemical processes for speciality APIs that go into speciality dosage forms. A large part of our dosage form business, both in India and in the US at Caraco, uses the APIs that we have developed and manufactured in-house. This helps us to compete as an integrated pharma company across these major markets. We've also developed processes for technically complex actives that are close to patent expiry. For several products, we have developed environment-friendly, higher yield or cost-effective processes. All APIs are developed to comply with international pharmacopoeial standards or to meet definite customer specifications. |

| Peptides |
|
| Several peptide based projects such as the anticancer / fertility peptide leuprolide have reached India and developing markets based on developmental work at the research center. Several more projects are in the pipeline, and these address fairly interesting international opportunities. |
