Scale-up From Laboratory To Pilot Plant
UQUIFA has pilot plants al all three facilities in Spain and Mexico. These plants are located on FDA approved sites and the pilot plants in particular have been inspected and approved by the FDA for small scale API/NCE production. Dedicated qualified technicians run the plants under cGMP guidelines and using identical quality control systems to those used for commercial production.
The three Pilot Plants produce 1 kg to multi-kg quantities for preclinical and clinical trials and for small scale commercial production.
Production units are designed to be flexible allowing many combinations of reactors, filters and dryers to be used in order to perform the same type of reactions that are conducted at industrial scale, reactions such as nitrations, ozonolysis, hydrogenations, we also undertake gaseous reagents such as isobutylene and chlorine gas.
