Optical Resolution with Biotechnology

“Contribution to development of pharmaceuticals by our original biotechnology”

SANYO FINE has been concentrating on research and development for optically active (chiral) compounds utilizing stereo-selectivity of microorganisms and enzymes, in order to meet increasing demand of optically active compounds.
We also have been developing the processes for alcohols and carboxylic esters with high optical purity by our original biotechnology procedures.
