zuCarb™ Research Carbohydrates & Intermediates

Monosaccharides

Rare/modified sugars, phosphorylated sugars, activated sugars
Pharmaceutical products that incorporate glycochemicals have tremendous therapeutic potential. However, pharmaceutical research with glycochemicals has been limited, at least in part, due to the fact that rare and modified glycochemical building blocks needed to research and manufacture these new drug candidates is difficult and expensive. zuChem’s proprietary technologies and uniquely experienced staff can provide many of these rare sugars as you need them and can develop the technologies and process to create one-of-a-kind solutions for you.

Hundreds of R&D companies are available for CRO service and small volume building blocks for research and discovery.

There are also hundreds of experienced pharmaceutical manufactories offering cGMP level key intermediates for pharmaceutical customers that requires more sophisticated chemistry, process optimization, etc. in large scale for lower cost.

Austin Shanghai has more than 24 years of experiences in China and we have established good relationship with manufacturers in help them to overcome the EHS hurdles and customer service issues that stopped them from being accepted by western customers.
