In order to develop NCE or generic new products in pharmaceutical industry, efforts and co-operation of various research field like pharmacy, chemistry, bioengineering, chemical engineering, and so on, should be accompanied.

Among them, APIs Development research and Analysis research field are important scientific area that are required in all department of new drug development such as API synthesis for IND (investigational New Drug) and clinical study for NCE research and development, even though at an earlier stage, generic API synthesis, their scale-up study for commercialization, in-process analytic methodological study and related support for registration etc.
Especially, APIs Development Lab. of ChoongWae carries on series research like lab-scale synthesis route development, process optimization and scale-up studies from lab-scale into real-production for industrialization of APIs & their key intermediates.
In 2006, we have improved on abbreviation of research period & cost-cutting through real-timely matching of both APIs Development Lab. and Analysis Lab, and have carried out analytical method development, validation, isolation & structure identification of related substances, and other various analysis methods development for APIs. And also, for observance of international regulations ( ICH and FDA guideline ), we are helping all other departments make regulatory documents and analyze.
