Lipids are a class of organic molecules composed of fatty acids or their derivatives. While they are insoluble in water, they dissolve readily in organic solvents. Due to their unique chemical properties, lipids play a critical role in a variety of applications across the cosmetic and food industries. Moreover, lipid molecules have proven essential in the formation of nanoparticles and the delivery of mRNA nucleic acids-technologies that contributed significantly to the success of mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines such as mRNA-1273 and BNT162, as well as other clinically approved therapeutics.
In addition, we offer rapid, high-quality custom synthesis services for novel lipid molecules, tailored to accelerate innovation in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries.
