BIOCATALYSIS

Biocatalysis employs naturally occurring or lab-enhanced enzymes as catalysts in organic chemistry. The use of biocatalysts in the pharmaceutical industry is growing rapidly due to their significant benefits, including improved efficiency, cost reduction, customization potential, and enhanced sustainability. At Orbiton, we leverage our expertise in complex chemistries and experience working with enzymes to integrate biocatalysis into our clients’ projects. Our biocatalysts provide sustainable synthetic catalytic solutions for producing optically active molecules, which are critical for the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, and fine chemical industries.
We rapidly identify suitable biocatalysts for new products or novel pathways for existing products by screening a variety of enzymes. This is followed by detailed exploratory and systematic experiments to identify, enhance, and optimize new biocatalytic reactions for maximum efficiency and productivity. Finally, we ensure the rapid and independent production of biocatalysts (enzymes) for scalable processes.
