Moreover, PQQ encourages a culture of transparency and accountability. In an age where businesses are increasingly held accountable for their environmental impact and social responsibility, suppliers that complete a PQQ are often required to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and ethical practices. This aspect of PQQ not only governs the selection of suppliers but also inspires innovation in sustainable practices, benefitting the environment and enhancing brand reputation.
Once a lead compound is identified, the next phase is process development. This step involves optimizing the synthesis process to produce the API efficiently and safely. Chemists collaborate to determine the most effective reaction pathways, select appropriate reagents, and establish reaction conditions (temperature, pressure, solvent choice), ensuring that the process is scalable for production. Analytical techniques are employed to monitor the reaction and assess the purity of the compounds generated.
