While carbohydrates have the potential to develop various therapeutic drugs, there is an inherent structural complexity in developing these molecules. At Aurigene, we have a rich track record of having worked on all classes of carbohydrates such as Monosaccharides, Polysaccharides, Iminosugars, Carbocyclic sugars, Nucleosides, Locked nucleic acids (LNA), Glycopeptides, and Thioglycosides. We have capabilities across complex multi-step carbohydrates involving linear & convergent synthesis, Selective protection and deprotection, control of selectivity in moisture-sensitive glycosylation, handling of triflates, azide transfer, and oxidations. We also have hands-on experience in the use of glycosyl donors like SMethyl, and STolyl and have capabilities in downstream purification and isolation involving water-soluble intermediates.
Highlights of our services include:
Lab infrastructure
We have lab-scale operations of up to 100 grams per batch. Our purification infrastructure at the lab scale includes
- 1 Akta explorer ion exchange chromatography
- 1 Aktaprime plus ion exchange chromatography
- Gel permeation chromatography columns
Isolation techniques
We have distillation, precipitation, and lyophilization techniques for isolation. For lyophilization, we have Virtis Programmable Tray 3 L Capacity & Virtis Benchtop 4 L Capacity.
Manufacturing Infrastructure
Carbohydrates are manufactured in Hyderabad (CTO-2) and Visakhapatnam (CTO-6 and CTO-SEZ)
- Telescoping operations at a commercial scale
- Operation efficiency to remove chromatographic separation and use of simple techniques to limit impurities such as solubility and solvent-based extractions
- C-18 purification (up to 2 Kg of the crude compound)
- Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) purification
- Size exclusion chromatography
- Strong Anion Exchange (SAX) purification
- Water For Injection (WFI)

Transforming Drug Discovery with Aurigene.AI
In the early 2000s, developing Sovaldi, a hepatitis C treatment, took over a decade and nearly $2 billion. Similarly, Zolgensma, a gene therapy for spinal muscular atrophy, required 15 years due to its complexity. However, the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized drug discovery. For example, in 2022, Pfizer's PAXLOVID, an oral COVID...
