Genotek Biochem Research & Development Centre located in Pune, is set up with highly advanced & modular infrastructure and technologies. This provides us with a safe, efficient & productive infrastructure, whilst maintaining optimum quality for diverse & complex chemistries.
Our Research laboratories are fully equipped with Fume-hoods, Rotary Evaporators, Vacuum Pumps, Scrubbers, Chillers, Gas utilities, Ovens, Work benches, Safety installations, etc. These facilities enable our highly capable & experienced team to efficiently execute custom synthesis, FTE, FFS, discovery & development of complex chemistries.
Research & development projects are vertically integrated for scale-up at in-house Kilo laboratories. Our Kilo labs are equipped with jacketed Glass Reactors (3 Ltrs. to 250 Ltrs.), Rotary Evaporators (up to 20 Ltrs.), High Vacuum pumps, Column filtration, Distillation, Nutsche filters, Chillers, Multi-mode Scrubbers, Vacuum Tray Drier, Gas utilities, isolated Filtration, Packing & Storage areas, all Safety installations, etc. The Kilo labs are designed to safely & efficiently scale-up chemistries which are complex, multi-step, hazardous, pyrophoric, etc. and at temperatures ranging from – 70°C to 250°C. There is an independent High Pressure Reaction area with Hydrogenators of 2 Ltrs. and 50 Ltrs., which can handle up to 100 bar pressure and 300°C temperature.
The research & development centre has in-house Analytical Development Laboratories set up with advanced instrumentation including HPLCs, GC, Prep HPLC, KF apparatus, Melting Point apparatus, Muffle furnace, Oven, Wet Lab, etc.
For scale-up, we are associated with a CMO near Pune, India, which has an installed capacity of 30KL. This facility has multiple SSR & GLR reactors ranging from 1 KL to 5 KL, Chiller unit, Boiler unit, Tray driers, Centrifuges, Sparkler Filters, Multi-mills, Sifters, Gas utilities, all Safety equipments, etc. It has a complete QC setup with all necessary analytical instruments. There is scope for further expansion up to 60 KL, including scale-up of hydrogenation reactions.
